Speedy late 70's precision. Hot relic from a sweet run. (also, trying to add 7.4.89 and keep getting an error message. Version needs recognition)

Baller Jerry track that made the jump to the big leagues. They lock in nicely to this version

I have an odd love affair for this song and Euro '72 was its peak. UK a few nights later is far superior, but this one certainly has sufficient gusto

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

Powerhouse energetic and Bobby legitimately snarling and growling in full force. Killllllller

Thick cosmic soup. At times demonic in nature, then a flawless transition into Terrapin

The embarrassingly entendred name “clam jam,” is very well done. I’ve always loved this show
