Tight, well-sung and really buzzing with energy. Keith has some great flourishes.

Hilarious intro as Bob and Jerry come in out of time with Phil. Hot one once they get going -- especially Billy, who's really 'on' at this show...

Phil and Bill sound like a runaway box car in an Appalachian mine! Heady interplay during the solos.

Cool chording from Bobby and a very restless Phil during the verses, then Billy and Keith fire off the jack hammer at the end of Jerry's lyrical solo.

This one is pretty unique for a song that didn't change much night to night...

Keith is very creative on this one. Great capper to an all-time great show!

Really wired version from all parties here amidst one of the best second sets (and shows) ever!

The harmonies are fantastic on this one. Not a song I'm usually a huge fan of, but I love this one!

Stunningly gorgeous. I don't think I've heard wider dynamic contrasts on any other version, nor do I think I've heard them so smoothly executed on any other...

So dreamy and smooth -- like this whole show. They don't all have to be Tiger...nice to have ones for many different moods.
