Love early 80s versions of LLR. This one does not disappoint!

Just about every other song from this show is on HV, so this should be too. Despite that fact, this show as a whole needs more love - it's excellent.

Perfect - JG nails this.

My favorite part of every Jed is the last long Jerry solo that wraps up the song - this is a really cool one.

Rooster is not necessarily a song I seek out when I look at setlists, but this one stands out. Nice show here.

Jerry’s playing is so good here. This might be the most underrated version of any song on HV.

Fast, clean, tight playing by JG. I usually steer clear of this show because Jerry's vocals throughout bother me for some reason - kinda too theatrical or something. The playing is excellent though.

This is so good I must comment again. 3:46-3:48 - this is the little riff I love the most.

Really cool version, and unique like others have mentioned. This needs to be bumped up the list. And what is up with Heady V not having Slewfoot or Green Green Grass of Home listed in the song catalog?

Fantastic closing solo by Jerry. One of my faves ever.
