Blazin' hot smokeshow of syncopated bends, slides, and hammer ons that turns the intensity up to 11

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

I was searching to see how high up this version of Let It Grow would come in at. Oh well, at least it's on the board. And it is a very tight version indeed.

Brilliant version with amazing Jerry guitar and mindbending Brent scat

I believe the commenters are right. This show is, in fact, listed on this date on relisten.org -- but other sources corroborate the commenters' belief this was 1985, not 1984.
