Tempo is perfect for Jer's deft touch - close to perfect with everyone contributing thoughtfully. Jer's voice is breaking by the end.

Jerry sprays the fire with a kerosene hose on the final jam. I feel he made up for missing the middle jam tempo shift where he got ahead of himself and blazed by the buildup before the drop. A sbd of this would launch it up the standings at least for '80's renditions.
