Unthinkable that such headiness be left from the lists! Stunning swagger, swooshing Phil, bril transition, mad jams.

Part of a first set that just kicks with horsepower from the 1st note. Purposeful, driving and strong. Hot stuff.

Muscular and edgy, with that amazing off-kilter propulsion unique to this song.

Sharp as a tack with lots of energy and a strong pulse. Clear they were having a great time.

Has it all. This set is just outrageously perfect.

Never drifts or waddles, just lifts off and flies away on a long and beautiful journey across it all and back again.

LIG on its own is up there with the most interesting and beautiful ones ever.

First one in six years (09/1970). Very pretty and beautifully harmonised. You know, Donna gets so little love here, but listen up here and you'll hear something of what the boys heard in her.
