I love the jam on this one. The interplay between Jerry and Brent is excellent. This is the start of a real face melt pre-drums.

Great '84 jammin'. Jer stays on the edge of the tracks almost dropping off and the jam goes on and on.

The bridge into Fire is a beauty. Jerry's lightnin' on the solos in Fire - this is a video on youtube and worth the watch. Great show, they really loved Hampton.
