Short, but listen to crowd freak out when the riff starts. Solid show on Lennon's birthday.

I think it lacks some of the nuances of tempo and texture their performances would come to have, but I'm up voting for Jerry's heart-stoppingly emotive vocals.

Jerry really captures the cowboy vibe of this, and his playing is hot. Listen to young Bobby.
