Donna and Bobby are so strong here. The solo is really tight and has some real life behind it. Surprised it wasn't listed! Give a listen!

Some serious tempo here. Great drum play. Bob nailing it down on the vocals. Jerry has some nice solo work here. Overall a great MAMU to enjoy. Love me some '78

Great 4k remastered video SBD on YouTube. The whole band is on fire, strong opening Bobby while Jerry starts shredding early into the show. Brent and Phil both engaged and strong, specially Brent on this particular performance. Some serious lift and soar. Great job and version. '87 and '89 are some serious treats to us <3 - = - SPECIAL ADD: Bobby at 8:43 screaming (lolol). Great version, but DO watch the video.. To funny during the solo with Bobby
Sugar Magnolia

Glen Helen Regional Park

This Sugar Magnolia is in full bloom. Bob has some serious 80's energy, of course, but coupled with some real purpose and direction with his vocals on this one. This one rips and Bob's vocals rip, but also rip with some life!! Brent's back up vocals are prime early Brent right here. Phil has some awesome highlights here too. One is really growing on me largely, Jerry's solo has great direction and is nailed. Jerry and Brent interplay really soars here too. Great showing from the whole damn band. The up tempo energy that doesn't lack ever is welcomed . -- This one does deserve more attention

Strong FOTD. Jerry's vocals are stunning and the band's tempo is great. Brent absolutely dances on his solo and leads the intro solo "enchantingly"; Leading into a Strong Bobby that holds a great rhythm momentum and some high highlights of own,- that balloons into a Jerry electrifying solo. Very strong FOTD.

Beautiful TLEO with a jumpy up tempo. Jerry's vocals are strong and have some soar and go places. The solo has some serious beauty to it with some commanding strikes from Jerry. The whole band is really engaged here. I enjoy '73 so much as a era, and this TLEO fits right in their <3
