Phil drives the first couple of verses, pushing hard against the band’s tempo. Slide Bobby.

poignant singing from Bobby, and the whole band pours it on during the solo break. Note the drummers especially. Top notch version.

Loved it, but wished Jerry could have taken more extended lines and played with Branford more.

One of the most musically interesting things I've ever heard them do. It is wonderful to see what they can do with incredible musicians.

No worries, djchall, I wasn't being sarcastic. It's Prankster Dead at its finest, and it's why that transition is all time.

Winterland Arena

Obviously a contender for a top spot, but I give it my vote because of how Winterland sounds here, and how they sound in it.
