Not a fan of this song but this version has spunk to spare. Still better when it was called "Hell in a Bucket."

Turn On Your Love Light

Madison Square Garden

The Dave Murray "Love Light"! Also, James Cotton lays down the harp for an extra bluesy feel. Really spry, energetic version from a great show.

Ass Kicker. 1985 was very kind to "Big Railroad Blues."

AMAZING performance.

This. This is where I GOT "Stella Blue." Amazingly, singularly emotional version.

Outstanding, spiritied, uptemp "Scarlet" coming out of a truly hot "Sugar Magnolia." If only they went into "Fire" after, that really would've been ace.

Dream Bowl

Really, really nice DS that stays close to the surface. Expert, fluid jamming throughout.
