Not a fan of this song but this version has spunk to spare. Still better when it was called "Hell in a Bucket."

Turn On Your Love Light

Madison Square Garden

The Dave Murray "Love Light"! Also, James Cotton lays down the harp for an extra bluesy feel. Really spry, energetic version from a great show.

Ass Kicker. 1985 was very kind to "Big Railroad Blues."

The song is great and the band goes all-out for the jam.

Very good. I think 5/30/92 is better, though.

With Steve Miller, this version has three guitarists. The climax sounds even more melting. Turn this one WAAAAAY up.

You gotta hear this one. Along with 5/31/92 and 3/27/94, one of the Top 3 post-Hornsby "Morning Dew"'s, and maybe Top 5 among post-Brent. PERFECT dynamics, and Jerry nukes the climax.

'Very clean version with nice soloing by Jerry (reminiscent of 73/74 Eyes) and strong Phil vocals.' Like putting a Versace suit on a pile of dog feces. This song is absolute garbage.
