They really attack it as opposed to sauntering through it…one of the most energetic I’ve heard! Don't let an audience tape scare ya...

Starts with some Buddy Rich-style hi-hat play…sounds like he’s doing that thing Buddy would do playing the bottom hat with his left hand fingers!

This wasn't played on the 27th...
They Love Each Other

I prefer the fast versions, so I disagree with this being #1, but it is undoubtedly a great version and one of the best of the slow versions.

^Yeah, it is a strong Keith version. Whole-heartedly agree that it shouldn't be #1 though -- that honour belongs to 5/17/77 Tuscaloosa IMO.

This is sometimes a "meh" song for me (although it's been growing on me recently), but this version wowed me today.

Great version and a great little solo from Keith!
