Billy and Mickey play together like they were a big octopus on this one. 'The Wheel' comes rolling nicely out of 'Space'. Altogether, a G-rated D>P.

An '82 vintage Playin' sandwich that finds the boys playin' in fine form. DP 32.

Jerry really belts this one out. All of the attention to detail that you'd expect in a version from this era plus a good bridge solo.

An enjoyable listen, but most notable, I'd say, for an excellent little peak that rises up like a volcano towards the end of the jam.

A good, light and airy version that shows quite well what this song was up to near the end of its first year in the rotation.

This and the outro portion of the NFA are the two things that come to mind when I think of this show.

Wonderful outro that just may be the best thing from this show. Excellent sound on the official release, as well.

A rippin 'Bama leads into an all-timer of a '> into GSET'. I'd put this in my own top ten GSETs.
