Amazing as well played as any Dew in existence. The gargling broken glass lyrics add a Tom Waits feel to this powerful tune. Great Philly crowd response, a rather moving version.

Passionate Dew, love the intro out of space here, Around the 3:25 Jerry really starts dialing up the intensity. THis is a dynamic Audience recording. Tremendous extra effort on this song. Great under rat Halloween blow out. Give this some needed Love.
