Bobby sings the hell out of this one. I know we've all heard dozens of these, but this one had that little bit extra that throws it over the top.

This song usually doesn't do it for me, but this is quite pretty. The SBD cuts out mid-solo, but it's a minor problem.

Jerry flubs some lyrics, but I liked the solo. Hints at the promise later to come in this well-known show.

The surviving tape has some issues, but this is a powerful version.

Jerry totally bungles the riff into Slipknot, but then recovers for a great jam.

Just wanted to tell you I tuned into your radio show last week! I couldn't hear it all (streaming problems), but loved what I could hear! Sweet job man.

Oh shit how have I not commented on this sooner? This is a killer jam and all-time stuff. I've dug this for a long time and it holds up. Does not disappoint.
