I love this song and I was surprised at how good this version was, when I heard it.

Sneaky little version, sitting right here in '84 delivering the good. I like it.

Speedy little version, that hangs in there and delivers nicely. '84 has some surprise, hidden gems.

Amazing! Should be higher!

Incredible ‘70 Minglewood. Early Minglewoods have incredible energy and aggression. Much better than later versions IMHO, but rough on Bobby’s vocal cords when done in this style. I see why they slowed it down to a more laid back groove & delivery.

Excellent late version of this. Rocks! Should be higher!

Jerry's solo shreds, his voice fits the lyrics perfectly, Hornsby's fills are beautiful and Phil's bass is way up front. Should be higher! Great late Stella.

It's hard to find a great version of Liberty because of what was going on with Jerry at this time, but this is a real nice version. I like this song. It's a grower.
