Nice transition from the drums. Good energy and firm attitude towards the song. Crowd enjoying it very much. Nice fading at the end.

An early short version, coming in at about 7 minutes, but the jam is intense and wonderful.

Dancin' in the Streets

Paramount Theatre

This is much better than I expected. Both the intro and outro jams are wonderful, fun and interesting. A most unique jam for Dancin'.

short and sweet.
Help On The Way > Slipknot > Franklin's Tower
Feb. 26, 1977
Swing Auditorium

This is a fine fine version and I put in a vote for an under appreciated Help, with Phil's bass undergirding clean playing from the rest. The Slipknot is as advertised. My goodness Phil lets it rip on this. The Franklin is the weak link but it's nothing to sneeze at and it's not very weak.
Good Lovin'
March 24, 1970
Pirates World

Oh my this is a fine version. A really good Bobby solo and Bobby continues to shine throughout the jam. Harmonies are good.
Samson and Delilah
Oct. 4, 1981
Rainbow Theater

Hot and high energy. CRandS flows beautifully into this. Everything pre-drums is top notch.
