Nice upbeat party time tune, Philly seemed to bring out the best in this song for some reason.

Excellent rock n roll punch of a really hot around and around followed by a rocking Johnny b goode, with some nice Donna help and a ripping Jerry.

The best, the tension builds to double before the release. This is absolutely my favorite version, just when you think they will release the tension Jerry doubles it, incredible powerful psychedelic beauty. A true powerhouse and deserves way more up votes.

Jerry could still muster the energy to bring it every know and then in 1995. This is a shining example. Fabulous Playing and singing. Every version is hot in 1995, but this is the best.

Fantastic killer Jerry fanning. Absolute monster.
