Part of a rare double encore, this version has great energy and bounce. The Brokedown to follow is nice as well. Check out the Oade Brothers AUD.

Really cool pre-drums jam in this version. Almost sounds like they are about to go into I Know You Rider.

It's a fine version and all but the cool little Jerry noodle just before Drums is the real reason to seek this version out.

Worth a listen for the uniqueness of the jam out of China Cat. A really playful and jazzy take on the China Cat outro.

Play this one loud. This version is triumphant. Excellent energy and a cool little jam into drums.

Hot and Fiery version. Great opener to the Giants Stadium Box Set. Sounds great!

I wouldn't really call this version "peppy". Take a look at any version from '77 if you want peppy. I'd call this one "lethargic".
