Clarence Clemons sits in for the whole show and really is a great addition. They rock this Let It Rock better than anywhere else I have heard anywhere

Oakland Auditorium

Phil's intro is titanic, as is the rest of his playing. He's inspired. And that Jerry fellow ain't too bad either. The whole band is wailing. Why isn't this ranked higher?

Damn, I haven't systematically compared this Estimated with others so I don't know how it ranks exactly, but I think this is the best Estimated I ever heard.

Oakland Auditorium

Jerry's not done rocking from that Alabama Getaway and Brent isn't done either as he whips out the B-3. Yeah baby.
