Jerry is a sugary sweet beverage on a hot day in this one. Super, super smooth

Great fills from Keith in this one. Jerry tackles the descending final guitar notes beautifully as well

Jerry and Keith trade some slinky solos in this gem

Very solid St Stephen that bleeds effortlessly into a raucous Eleven

Holy f*ck!! Phil hits an absolute moonshot with this. Completely takes over and guides the band into a purely blissful jam

I love the pacing in this. No rush, band is patient and offering turns for each other to shine. Always been a top version, personally. Dusted off again today and still a sweet moseying bluesy dander. Love it

Definitely worth listening to for the rhythmic oddity. I can't tell whether it was purposeful or just out of sync (I felt like the former, but not certain?). Worth it for something different, if nothing else
Playin' In The Band

William and Mary College Hall

Very choice. I felt like this cracked my head open, then patiently melded it back together on a concerted listen.

Absolutely cracks with energy. The ramp up is a powerhouse. So strange, almost a year gap until this version, then not played again until Nov '79. They made this one count at least!
