Man does this version have a good bounce to it. I would put this version up against any version from the 80's.

This version doesn't quit. Jerry's solo is relentless

Great swing to this version. Excellent Brent and Jerry solos. A gem of a show from an odd tour.

Doesn't include the William Tell lyrics but has a cool segue into Lovelight.

A short 6 song 1st set but there is good and energy and playing throughout. This TMNS has a good bounce and brings the set to an triumphant close.

Nice improv here. This jam floats and builds to a nice peak then drifts back sweetly into the ending verses.

Phil sounds awesome on this version. Check out the recently liberated Knudsen soundboard. Groovy bass runs galore.

Well executed version. Has a nice funk to it.
