Brilliant interplay between guitars. Convincing vox by Bobby.

You can hear Brent listen. Also love when Jerry switches to fingerpicking in the solo.

Park West Ski Resort

Jerry takes charge in the jam and doesn't put a foot wrong. Waits for the others before the peak. Deceptively profound version.

The end of this is outrageous

Phil plays something wild at the end of the jam. Doesn't even sound like him - maybe he's plucking with his fingers? Anyway it's cool

Civic Center

Jerry sings this carefully and with feeling. Last solo is big.
Not Fade Away
Nov. 2, 1979
Nassau Coliseum

At 10 minutes there's the ghost of a St. Stephen tease that has all of Long Island cheering, but of course the boys succeed in disappointing. Great NFA.

Nassau Coliseum

Huge version won't quit. Agree with Mercury that Bobby stands out.
