Loose and loud - garage band city here! Tempo all over the road but nice and fast for the jam.

Big time bluesy show so Brent's train song fits into the night Jerry's vox is burnt but good energy this night.

Brent wakes everybody up with his B3 and then Jerr gets all sprightly on the jam - nice later one.

Jerry does some sweet bending and carving on this one - the band is in step on this one.

Lusk Field House - State University Of New York

Crooning, crunchy, cranky, springy, thumpy, distorted, awesomeness - killer this one is. Jer's vocal work is top notch.

Yeah very different and at 6:50 mark sounds like Jerry references another song's melody that some here might know - cool stuff. +1

Some tape chaw on the sbd but it does not get in the way of the fine little nugget of kickass jam.

Just listen to the drum intro and you will know that this shapes up into a killer '71 NFA .... nicely stretched out jamming into GDRFB that is the tits. And indeed Phil bombs his bass cabinet at the end of the reprise and an entire block of the Bronx went dark.
