Rollicking and hard-charging good time set closer after a brain-melting Playin'.

In spite of muffled sound in need of a cleanup, this one has all the swagger and triumph of the best of '72. BTW fans take heed!

Dallas Memorial Auditorium

Surprised not to see this here. The trans has extra oomph to it and the band sails along in perfect sync. Great fun.

Pristine and fun. There's a cogent, almost album-tight quality to it.

The mix is off at first, vocals lost, but hang in there and you'll hear one of Jerry's most heavy metal solos on Loser ever. Absolute shredder.

Starts really loose, but gets going.

Crystal clear and jam-a-licious. A sparkling beauty.

Confirms why I'm not so into the '80s.

"Mellowish" but not mellow like the sleeeeeeeepy '76s. It still has some of the psychedelic bite from the primal years. Love love love it.

I'd vote for this one twice on the MLB alone. Zo zweet.
