Jerry is very, very sharp on this. Except for the lyrics.

This version rewards multiple listens. Like it was good the first time, great the second. I hesitate to listen to it again. Bobby leads the way.

Jerry plays one brilliant idea after another as Phil provides counterpoint.

The false start on the fourth chorus of the solo is a thing Jerry does that I love so much

If you like your Altheas angry, bitter, and cutting, as opposed to mellow, this is the one for you. I love them all and this one is amazing. Surprised it's not higher.

Metropolitan Sports Center

Burning version. Jerry's last solo is fantastic. Listen to the crowd lose their minds when he goes full Chuck Berry in his last chorus.

Milwaukee Auditorium

Jerry tries some very unique approaches during the solos and builds up lots of drama

Nassau Coliseum

The way Jerry slowly turns up the heat in the last solo is amazing. You don't know what's happening until it's over.
