A personal favorite. Similar to the final show version, but this underrated song needed more attention.

also a big moment for Jerry on the solo. Sounds great through the Wall. love this version.

Freedom Hall

I was surprised also to not find this one more near the top. The jam is just off the hook crazy with the Wall goin' all kindsa nuts. Needs to be listened to loudly in headphones to really appreciate... not a "casual" version of the tune.

With a cherry on top jam that goes way over the top. Not to mention the incredible stereophonics goin' on with the wall of sound. If I could give a super +1 I would, but instead I'll just give a regular +1.

This one should be nearer the top. An amazing performance.
