One of those heady, gritty early 80's Duprees. Also Jerry nails the lyrics! No fumbles at all, astonishing really

Lovely show opener, mix is a bit wonky at first but Phil is all over it. Great show all in all!

On the heels of a tremendous Eyes - I bet if this was included with the rest of the bonus on Dick's Picks 17 it would be *much* higher on this list
