7 Lousy votes for what is arguably some of the most worthy hard jammed acid rock from your favorite band. Get back to the roots, run for the hills, Katie bar the door and try to put this fire out and good fucking luck. KILLER I repeat killer That's it for the Other One. The CE reprise in particular is basically the sounds of a Red Dwarf changing to Blue.

Lots of ideas abound here and yes agree they stretch it out nicely - Jer's licks are exploring the outer edges of each song and Phil detonates in the Rider.

Fiery and spanking nasty take. Recording captures the band/crowd energy really well too. The sight, sound and smells of this show are all right here. .

Yowzer - I had to go back and listen again. Whew boy that last solo is a wonderfully emotional, melodic trip that hits all the right notes for me.
