Jerry is sharp and accurate here. Great energic vocal digs. Brent's back ups are so nice. Some heart and lift here, focused and engaged every second!!

Bob's voice has some real flare/funk to it. The whole band was on fire this night. Amazing opener to a incredible show!

Featured right after Wharf Rat. BLASTING with power and tempo. The opening is explosive and the tempo doesn't let up. Very strong '79 version. FIRE.

Franklin's Tower

A solid recording. A good strong tempo. Crowd claps along. It's a solid Franklin's Tower. The band open's '79 strong and they we're strong this show. Jerry's vocals have some great moments and his solos are tight and crisp. Up vote.

So pulling and immersive. Donna at her finest. A gorgeous and inspiring solo throughout and to the closing end. Not a second wasted, very tight.. But not sacrificing the magic of the song too. The whole band is really engaged here and made something special here. This whole show is a treat. A extremely deserving up vote.

This is a perfect example of "must listen". Wether it's your preferred casey jones or not, you won't regret listening. The energy, tempo, crowd and performance. A masterful listen and a necessary listen. I always save this Casey Jones for the right times in life.. So much fun <3

I love Donna's singing with Jerry here so much. Such beautiful guitar play from Jerry. The solo has some real lift and soar to it! I really enjoy this version a lot. The whole band really had some good moments on this one. Opener song to the show too. Rolls immediately into a Peppery Franklin Tower. GREAT recording even with the crowd. A worthy listen~ up vote
