Jerry's voice is crisp, his playing is sharp, and Keith does a great job with atmospheric organ fills

Fillmore East

An extra handful of stank on the end jam puts this well above a "normal" version. Definitely worth checking out

Absolute scorcher. Nimble licks abound

Like others, not a massive TJ fan, but was in Nashville and a spin felt obligatory. This one is a crusher - band is tight and Jer puts the hammer DOWN on the leads. Very enjoyable version and yeah, they def brought it in Nash during an already iconic month in dead history

Nashville Municipal Auditorium
