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.

Jerry's voice is strained but the playing is exceptional!

This tasty grilled cheese and tomato sandwich envelops you with melty cheese that drips perfectly into China Doll and even more perfectly back into PITB. Gives you some nice thick slices of tomato during drums > space and then finally a buttery and toasty segue back to PITB, ending it properly.

Really sweet version, especially for a debut! Love the segue into Stella Blue.

The overall show is just ok, but the 1st set opening sequence is worth checking out.
