Jerry calls for Keith to solo and he owns it. Great vocals by Jerry and Pig kills on backing organ

The Palladium

Rotterdam Civic Hall

Minor lyrical flubs could not be of lesser relevance for my enjoyment. This one is a solid rendition. Some nice emotive vocal chaw from Jerry in the final verse/chorus
China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider
