In most ways typical of era but I wanted to note it for how fine Donna's voice is throughout this one.

Nice pacing with good energy. Playing is good with exception of Bobby's slide solo, which falls into that period of out of tune passion.

This is a really smoking version. The playing is great with high intensity and energy.

Nice transition from the drums. Good energy and firm attitude towards the song. Crowd enjoying it very much. Nice fading at the end.

I like Mickey's sounds in this first of 2 short drums sets for this show. The 2nd drums does lead to TOO. That one was less interesting.

Jerry's runs are great and Phil and Bobby both show passion.

I wanna' give this one a little love. Phil is cranking all over. A little faster paced than most. Jerry warming up nicely. A good Brent version.

The post jam and then a seamless transition to the TOO. Goodness this band is good.

A band paying attention, listening to each other and making the sound. What a gem this one is.
