Here's how great this one is: I had to listen to it twice and I still can't figure out what makes it great. But it is.

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.

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.
Franklin's Tower
May 30, 1980
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.
