Really great solo from Jerry — fast, banjo-style picking

Starts with some Buddy Rich-style hi-hat play…sounds like he’s doing that thing Buddy would do playing the bottom hat with his left hand fingers!

Billy is pretty aggressive, as he is this whole show, and Jerry's soloing is hot...

Flowing straight out of a fantastic 'Half-Step,' this is a goon one. It's between '71 and '72 for the best year for 'Sugar Mags' IMO...

Jerry's solo has a bit of a '73 feel on this one...that liquid, mellow intensity.

Completely and utterly arresting from the first note to the last.

Rhythm Devils are really on fire on this one! I had to turn the volume down a notch on the wind-down into Love Light...thought my headphones were going to explode.

Quite a heavy transition into The Eleven.
Hey Jude

I quite like Pig's vocals on this! I don't expect him to sound like McCartney...
