Jerry sounds tired and pained here, which of course is perfect. For some reason he usually doesn't nail the solo in this tune but he does here.

Compton Terrace Amphitheatre

Huge version. Weird that it's not on here. Jerry is brilliant from the first note of the intro. Listen to him starting at 9:05. Brent great too.

Man Smart, Woman Smarter

Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain

Manor Downs

The phrase Jerry plays in the transition at around 10:30 kills me, a searching little melody and its response with the volume pedal

Compton Terrace Amphitheatre

Beautiful searching, inquisitive solos, plus you get to hear Jerry telling us to get yourself a parking lot
