Lovely version from an underrated show. Nice harmonies from Brent especially and Jerry's solos sparkle.

How is this not here? Smooth, emotive version with a soaring solo from Jerry. Bruce buttresses it beautifully. Top version.

Give Vince credit - he's terrific here. Rockin' version.

Vinny's tone in the early shows is really great and reminds me of the 1960s' surf rock sound.

Jerry is also in pretty strong shape vocally. A little tired but clear and soulful.

The "Shakedown" from the 10th is a monster worth checking out!
