Driven version. Purposeful, biting, and strong, with a high-tension wire energy. They meant business.

Jer sings thrôugh a cold, but the beauty and sweetness shines through. Sounds like he would 10 years later, but with the '78 sound. Full of love.

If you can get past the migraine-inducing AUD, this is one rowdy shitkicker that riles up the fun-loving crowd.

Smokin' hot encore to finish off one brilliant mother of a show. OMSN isn't many folk's fave tune, but this one just rocks hard.

This show has biting hardness throughout, then this seems a bit la-la until the 7/4 parts, and that grit returns with crunching nastiness. Excellent!

Baby Bobby: Shimmy shimmy shake shake, baby baby baby! This is twisty rock and roller Baby Bobby stuff here. Consider for a moment that he was 18 years old at this point. Hot damn.

Listening to all of '66 and this feels like the very first fully realized one.

Fans of this song need to hear this! It's down to the bare bones, young, raw and full of passion.

You'd almost call this a Phil song at this point in the early history of the band. So cool to hear it in its infancy.
