Bobby seems to be so on this night. Everybody seems to be taking his lead so far.

Heard this last night on the XM Dead Channel. Just classic high energy rock n roll!

Incredible duel between Jerry and Brent Jams! There is nothing in this world like that Hammond organ mixed with Jerry's MIDI

Jerry takes an energetic Scarlet into a mellow jazzy outro into a smooth transition into Fire then Phil starts raising the energy and the Fire grows..

I was just listening to this one today. It keeps building towards the end with a really nice Phil lead jam before it just explodes. Great call!

Fillmore West

20 minutes of Lovelight>20 Minutes of That's It For The Other One>20 Minutes of Dark Star>20 Minutes of St, Stephen & The Eleven! Are you freaking kidding me? After that hour and a half (approx.), if you still had the energy or the mind capacity left to move, you're a better man than I.

Nice aggressive version. Much faster than most of the one's you'll hear. The boys seem to be really enjoying themselves though. My favorite version.

Dream Bowl

This has to be the ultimate version. Jerry's voice coming in off the low volume start of the instruments. Amazing!

The ultimate version where Brent lets go and just takes over the song.
