Charged up with energy coming out of the hot Alabama opener. They really go after this one, and makes it stand out. Great stuff!

Loads of fun! Like versions from '79, it's an interesting hybrid version - the energy of 80's versions but minus the second solo. Still kicks, though!

I always liked the late-second-set placement of Bertha in the early Brent era. This one smokes - Brent's keys are fiery and Jerry destroys the solo.

The menacing transition out of Black Peter is only matched by Bobby attacking the mic like a rabid dog. The post-drums/space of this show is killer.

Slow, haunting, and dramatic. Comes slithering out of Space like a wafting plume of smoke.

Tom Constanten is a HUGE factor in this excellent version.

Keith and Jerry go NUTS. Best-ever, in my book.

Brent blowing minds with his solo. An awesome version from an awesome show.

This one is AMAZING - off the rails in its energy level. The band explodes in the kind of fury that makes tracks like this special.

The best ever, in my opinion. It absolutely scorches. Jerry's soloing is manic, but don't count out Brent's keys - they're just as responsible for how epic this one is.
