This one plays pretty true to form, but a strong, clean, and powerful rendition with nice guitar breakdowns from Jerry.

In a heady show from Alaska, this suite fits perfectly in a sneaky brilliant show

Perfect closer to a very underrated show! Superb playing by the band, makes for a warm and perfect ending

Mickey and Bill are laying it DOWN in this rip. Coming off a hard-rockin ChinaCat>Rider, they seem perfectly in the grove to let it fly on this rendition.

I like it, I like it a lot. Cool guitar tone from Bobby on the rhythm

This is my favorite version. Maybe dropped into a show where I'd least expect it, but it sounds as fresh as ever and just tugs at the heartstrings.

Super hard rocker. Can't play it loud enough, quite frankly.
