Wolf's tone is even killer on Mama. I have no problem saying this is best ever.

It's a nice one, but the Cap version is the definitive. Listen for yourself.

Hot version with an Easy Answers in it. The jam out of Easy Answers flat out smokes.

Could do no wrong at this show...even the Miracle smokes. This one blows away 90% of all the versions out there.

I wish some one who was a better writer than me could write a paragraph about why this version is inadequate and help me understand why its so low. Honestly, this version is in top 5 that I listen to for all reasons listed in the above post. It's a version that has everything.

Jerry has that tone in the final solo that is like fuck alpine 89....I'm going heavy metal.

Everything was played so well this night with killer song selection. This little ditty gets lost in this epic show.
