Sneaky, searching solo is worth a listen.

Jerry and Bobby are great here. Burning.

Easily the best version of this song I've ever heard. Listen to how Jerry sings!

If shows with great sounding SBs are overrated, the opposite is true. Jerry is burning this night and his solo here is spectacular.

Love how Bobby climbs to the peak. Great jam after too.

Broome County Arena

Huge 20-minute version. Jerry is full of ideas and loose and free. Bobby plays a great slide riff at almost 12 minutes in.

Recreation Hall - Penn State University

Another third chorus in the solo and Jerry rips it up
Estimated Prophet

Hampton Coliseum

Jerry seizes on an interesting theme in the solo and tears it up in the coda.
