This one is just ridiculously good. Jerry's solo is fantastic, and the band is on all the way through.

Another one of those "not sure why it's" great versions. The Philly crowd singalong is great too!

Phil busts in to start out the jam and it must have shook the house. Heavy '84 version.

Just a great great performance of this song. The band is in full effect to end this show.

Knickerbocker Arena

Solid version. Original vocs are strong . Not the first time the boys re-recorded vocals.

Jerry is completely dialed-in to his tone for this Fire. I feel that this may have been the sound he searched for in every Fire. The rest of the band is on as well with contributions abundant throughout. A highly recommended under the radar version.
