Crazy slide licks, wondeful version from a show with one of the best second sets of all time! Jerry goes nuts a little over 3 minutes in . . .

Not sure why the next night gets all the love, this one's great, too!

Best of the best of the 77-78 versions. Jerry absolutely ripping licks and vocals ... "Run and See!!" series absolutely off-the-wall, then into S. Mag

Music Hall

Can't believe no one posted this. Far superior to 7/17/76. Filler on the new release (Jan 2012). Comes out of Wharf Rat!

The Fire in the combo is my personal fave. Very silky, love's Keith's experimentation with a different set of keys, totally pleasing . . .

This is the one. Never before and never after 76 were these ballads so sweet . . . Keith and Jerry at this time = unreal.
