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.

He's Gone

Jerry has moments where he really digs into the lyrics. Great '74 tempo. Phil has some strong moments here too! Gorgeous 1st solo with some strong Donna moments. Beautiful Keith moments mixed in their too. This is truly a great performance. A worthy listen and up vote.

Yeah Keith is all over this show. I love to see it :) Bobby is really noticeably strong here too and same with Jerry too. The whole band this night is just really engaged... Hops into a peppery Bertha that is really nice too. Phenomenal show! You can feel the passion on this one. A must listen and a great show..

Inspiring Deal, the whole band is really engaged and tight on this one.. A very strong '74 Deal. Gorgeous and well executed solo as well!

A very well done and great recording. Brent is really powerful here. I enjoy a lot of versions of this song.. It's basic and yes somewhat bubblegummy, but a nice set break. The best? Not sure, top 3 for sure.. But their are other strong competitors.. Worthy of the hype though for sure. Must listen. Up vote

Beautiful '74 ship of fools.. Jerry's lyrics are strong here and the tempo is fitting. Agreed on being a good show
