Excellent stand-alone version, Jerry plays and sings a perfect tempo. Beautiful version, ethereal to say the least.

Civic Arena

Middle of the road show at best, but this Black Peter portrays a certain beautiful somber joy that just clicks along with the very slow tempo

Tight and upbeat, energetic soloing, but at the same time relaxed and controlled.

He's gone sounded great in 1979. Always been a favorite.

Fall 79' was damn good, This version keeps with the consistency of the month. Executed with soulful driving energy.

Hot as can be, this song might be harder to jam on then others, but nevertheless the quick jams are energetic, and this one certainly does not disappoint.
