Jerry dials his tone in early and contributes in a big way.

Some great organ riffs, some great blues playing from Jerry.

I love how it functions in the context of the whole first set.

This whole show needs some love. Don't be discouraged by the uneven quality of the tapes/SBDs!

The smoothest transition out of "Estimated" that I've heard, and it doesn't let up.

Hot damn. Listen to the AUD so you can hear the crowd eating it up. The band peaks multiple times.

I love his tone from this period on (using more/different echo/chorus effects? Little help here?). And sweet accompaniment all riffs at the end, nice spot!

Outstanding version. Won't be surprised when this moves higher up the list.

The guitar playing is unreal, and don't let it overshadow an emotive performance of the ballad portion of the song.
