This is absolutely mesmerizing. The crowning jewel in an all-timer show. The connectivity with the band, the ramp up peak, then quieter jamming is so creative and precise. To me, this is infinitely better than any of the disco-laced '77 and beyond versions, which are great no doubt, but are this is in a whole other league of awesome
