You'll hear voices and see faces in this abstract assault which showcases exceptional group interplay. Bertrando's AUD is VG+.

I always thought that Summer '74 was the best period for this tune but this version is sick.

Definitely a good one--a very good one.

Tight. The first solo is a good one.

Nice transition and even better soloing during the Fire. A more 'pure' version than that from 8 days later. Thanks for leading me to this one.

Thanks to 'Mandojammer' on the archive for leading me to this show via his 1984 project.

Gotta give this one the old bump. A nice, energetic show opener that features some good guitar work from Jerry. One listen will tell you this one is clearly underrated (as is 9/19/90).
