Jerry nails the lyrics, nice interplay with Brent and Jerry, and a great crowd reaction. Seriously fun version.

Road Trips Vol. 3, No. 4. There is something about that Hammond Organ that makes this song like a church hymn. Strong version.

Nucking Futs way to end a show! Pig invites the crowd up to help in the rap on his mic and say whatever they want!

Explodes out of a rockin' St. Stephen and carries that energy all the way through to Lovelight. I'm shocked their equipment didn't spontaneously erupt

Fuzzy recording but the energy on this Stephen cannot be denied.

Corals, totally agree! I was just listening to this tonight while stuck in traffic and almost hit the car in front of me while rocking out to that last jam!
China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider

What is the thematic jam at the end of China? Is it Mind Left Body, Feeling Groovy, or something else that I have heard referenced but can't yet identify by ear?

An absolute ass-kicker!

Jerry is definitely taking the lead here but the notes that Bobby, Keith, and Phil are hitting are so spot on to accompany that journey that Jerry is leading that it just really takes your breath away. An almost perfect version. Great call!

Jerry's playing is so intense, it almost seems angry. Keith's key work is fantastic, especially in the energetic middle jam. Awesome transition into Eyes. Definitely deserves more votes but picking a favorite Estimated/Eyes from the 70's is like trying to name the favorite one of your kids.
