Love how Jerry starts his first solo. The rest is great too. His playing is easy and free.

Intense dynamics and drama. Phil and Jerry are brilliant.

Jerry sounds tired and pained here, which of course is perfect. For some reason he usually doesn't nail the solo in this tune but he does here.

Should be higher, like the band was this night. Monster version. Phil amazing. Love the theme Jerry gets into in the last Fire solo.

I love this long, leisurely version where you can really hear the singing and Keith. Also love the meandering jam after it into St. Stephen.

I love it when Jerry takes such an awesome solo that he can't sing the first part of the next verse. Raucous, fantastic version

Great version. The jam tells the story right.
