Embarrassingly bad > from "Wheel," but full-on assault from the band that rages throughout otherwise.

Wonderful > from Space. Brent! Tempo and energy boost before the chorus.

Hot and short. Unreal how sure Jerry is on all these leads.

I'll come right out and say it, this is one of the best band interplays I have ever heard. Archive comments talk about Jerry being low in the mix, and I think it's also a purposeful move on his part to bring his volume down because the band is absolutely cooking. Solid efforts from Brent, Phil, and Mickey's cyclic patterns especially, but the whole group is simply locked in.

Incredible version. Manor Downs has long been my go to '82 "S > F," but I'm reconsidering this now.

This is a serious version. The song never really clicked for me till now. Check it out. (edit) This is incredible. The whole show has a weird quirk about it that I love, and this as a powerful set I ender is part of it.
