A great one from summer '90. Vocals are crisp, musically the organ work is great and the band is tight and all in the flow.

This song is not really in a "heady" format, but I always liked it as a 1st set tune. This version is well.played as is this show.

Yes 1984. I love the ups that happen in this year. This version has a lot of great energy from the boys. Mid-song solo is very strong.

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.

Sometimes Jerry sounded as if it was his first reading of this song. In a good way. Vocals are indeed strong in this version.
