Hot Jerry has one of those amazing piercing solos where the notes cut like a knife. This is beautiful and well sung some minor mic issues but Jerry +

As passionate as i have heard Jerry singing on this one, does make a vocal miscue but sings right through it instead of just starting to mumble .

Love the sound brent's synth brought to these 1979 and 1980 versions. added a very nice funky flavor to them. Giving them a very period sound.

Brent is very stellar on this china cat as are the drummers an overall very hot version, had not heard it before this past week very cool listened to it a few times. Really a fun transition pushed again by Brent and the drums. Jerry is on as well. Nice audience recording not perfect but puts you there in the crowd.
