As is typical of this era of the band, Keith totally owns this version. I can't get enough of just how tasty his piano fills are here.

Opens set two with energy. Keith and Jerry duel it out the whole way through the song.

Love versions of this track from 72 and 73, and this one's no exception. Keith's piano is great, Jerry's playing with gusto, everyone's locked in.

Keith's gentle keys add SO much to this version - a very emotive rendition, just as it should be

A big showcase for Jerry's vocals - he's nice and aggressive here. Keith and Billy sound great as well backing him.

Billy's drums sound great here. A rampaging version!

Bobby actually upstages Jerry here, especially after the flubbed Candyman. Wild version with tons of gusto in the vocals, and the energy continues into Big River.

??? There was no show on this date. Did you mean 4/4/85?
Hell in a Bucket

JFK Stadium

Since this comment will bring me to +666 points, I might as well comment on a hot Hell in a Bucket. And boy is it hot. Sets the tone for an excellent show.

Madison Square Garden

Hot jam with that classic Cassidy-esque riff that marked earlier versions of this song. Toward the end, it sounds like the band wants to go into Sugar Magnolia, but Jerry cans it for Touch of Grey.
