Fantastic jam. Everyone looks alive. Bobby and Brent drive it.

One of the best I've ever heard. Jerry is on fire, Bobby sings great, and drummers are right there.

Jerry has to be feeling it for this tune to work and he's on fire here

Sneaky, searching solo is worth a listen.

Huge version won't quit. Agree with Mercury that Bobby stands out.
They Love Each Other

Nassau Coliseum

Phil is doing something very far out on this, especially during Jerry's solo. Needs to be heard.
China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider

Cape Cod Coliseum

Bobby's playing and sound in the transition are great. Amusing that he goes into Jerry's "I wish I was..." verse. Jerry's chordal solo at the end is fantastic.

New Haven Coliseum

You have the feeling this is a monster version from the first downbeat and you're not wrong.
The Other One
Aug. 13, 1979
McNichols Arena

Very dense and dynamic. Great transition out of He's Gone
