Jerry's voice was still weak from laryngitis, but his guitar made up for it, ripping and roaring!

Friday the 13th, super brief, but it's there between Dancin' and Wharf Rat, both great versions!

Fierce and Fiery!!! Like most great Dews, we wish this one would never end. Digs deep in the end. First big solo too……

No China!! I was fortunate to see the Boys pull off a Half-Step-Rider in '85. It was a bit clunky, though ridiculously fun. This is not clunky. This is a thing of beauty, with a Groovy Jam to boot!! Jerry roars his wishes!!! Entire sequence beyond classic!!!
