This Bertha cooks. Definately deserves to be here. Jerry forgets the last verse, but the less Jerry sings, the more Jerry plays.

Not as good as the shrine, but has its amazing moments.

As heartfelt as the Europe versions. Worth a listen. Lots of epic stuff on DP 23.

Samson and then right into Bertha that continues the Samson energy. Pure version. Makes no sense that this version has 2 votes.

Gave it another listen with all the activity for this version. It remains just good to me and will never be a go to for me, but that's ok. That's the beauty of this site.

All these rare electric versions are so tasty from the 80's. Great call, Donnie.

I'm an 82 LL Rain guy, but this is one of the finest from this year.
