Hot outro resolves into a brief contemplative space before yielding to Drums.

Sparkling, energetic version. The first set of the Nassau run is a great one!

Grooves smartly with excellent contributions from each member. The whole first set is hot and worth a listen.

Jerry and Donna sound great in this uptempo version. Jerry's solo smokes too, of course.

Sweet bluesy outro jam. Spring ’78 was very good to poor Peter.

St. Paul Civic Center Arena

It’s not an exaggeration to say that this was one of the best songs in their repertoire around the time of this version.

Boston Music Hall

What a journey! At first deft and delicate, then thick and swinging ... and of course there's a classic '72 space freakout. Highly recommended.

Wow, where did that come from? A unique jam makes for one of the coolest NFAs of the decade.

Jerry switches to slide after several verses, followed shortly by a smoooth segue to Walkin’ Blues. Cool and different.
