One of the best versions of this era. Jerry is loose and free. Bobby plays a great slide solo (really).

The transition jam is longer than previous versions and many later ones, and Jerry goes somewhere in it. That should have happened more.

One of my favorite EPs. Can't believe it's not on here yet. Jam is fantastic, with Phil leading the way. Huge ideas and imagination.

Great jam covering a lot of ground, Phil pushing and pulling patiently, Jerry attacking.

Jerry's last solo is outrageous and the drummers respond

Agree with iknowyourider. The amount of empty space early in this DS is frightening and beautiful. Also love what Phil plays at 22:46.

Bobby's playing is amazing in the jam.

One of my fave tapes from way back when. So many great moments from Jerry and Phil, especially in the transition and during Fire.

Jerry is really paying attention to this. Great emotion and inspiration vocally and in the solo.
