Good version sandwiched between HCS and the big jam suite...

Seems like this show needs more love around here...a few high vote-getters, but the whole thing rocks

This song is awesome in '73, and this one is no exception!

Playin' In The Band

Wembley Empire Pool

Unbelievably dense and intense for its length, just like the "Good Lovin'" right after!
Little Red Rooster
March 27, 1987
Civic Center

Jerry is fantastic on this one as well -- great tone!
Around and Around

Hartford Civic Center

Love Brent's solo on this one...hints of Jerry Lee Lewis.
Terrapin Station
April 19, 1984
Philadelphia Civic Center

Jerry's voice certainly wasn't as enchanting in '84 as it was in '77, which matters for this song IMO, but instrumentally this version more than holds up!
Hard to Handle

Capitol Theater

Very slinky, sensual pace and vibe to this one. Prefer the famous versions from later in '71, but this one is very cool in its own right.
