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

Check out the really groovy pre-drums jam that comes out of this UJB.

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

Love the way this version builds and peaks.

Miami Arena

This version is ho-hum. Doesn't peak like the good versions do. The segue into Truckin' isn't very graceful either.

The Palladium

Love the way each note lingers throughout the solo. Very passionate and soulful. Makes you wish it never ends.

Olympic Center

Jerry's fingers are flying and Brent is laying it down. This version deserves to be way higher.

Meadowlands Arena

They pull it together at the end for sure, but the beginning of this version is a sloppy mess.
