I am always on the search for top notch Cassidys' and this one really checks all the right boxes. The mid song jam is en fuego

Tight and focused, only 8 minutes but for 8 minutes it covers a lot of ground.

Tender and sorrowful. Jerry hits all the right notes.

This version is good not great. It has that thing where Jerry really muffs the vocals so he kills it during the guitar solo. Jimmy's during the 80's seemed to have that occur somewhat frequently.

This version rages hard! Jerry's fingers could still fly in '85.

This version actually has a lot going on. The mid jam is wonderful and the pre drums jam is solid.

Let's be honest here. This version sucks.
