Its All Over Now

Rupp Arena

Hottest I've ever heard . . . Bobby's growling, Jerry's solo is inspired, huge crescendo . . . as good as the Faces' romp off their album

He's Gone
Oct. 28, 1977
Soldiers' and Sailors' Memorial Hall

Nearly twenty minutes of He's Gone goodness -- jam goes into Drums then NFA but stays squarely in He's Gone territory with some very nice interplay.

Fox Theatre

A lot like the wild December 2 Casey, without the extra solo at the end. A fantastic, complete build-up. Keith goes nuts. Great energy!

I've been wondering the same thing. Often the link is to an inferior source . . . too bad . . . hope there's a way! BTW, heady 4th of July version!

Superb in every solo, expressive all-the-way around, band in one of their peaks, what else can you ask?
