Amazing jamming. Very jazzy, some of vince's best work imo. wouldn't call it the best version but definately worth a listen.

Yep! this after that killer Dew, and then into a killer NFA. that chant goes on till the encoreS without ever getting any quieter, it only gets louder. Brent has some beautiful colors here and nice guitar work from bobby and his sparkly shiny sound, Phil thumpin along to the tight groovy drumwork.

Beautiful version after one of my favorite Drumz>spaces. this evolves so prefectly out of this elephants in tall grass(what I see from it) D>S. Phil is on throughout the whole show dropping bombs that all seem to have been on timers waiting to explode at this moment in the show. Jerry belts out the vocals in this one too. Guess it does'nt matter any WAY!!! AWESOME!

Brent's solo is untouchable here! top 10 versions all-time at least!! Brent on the biggest speedball ever! Rockin' through the roof! and downright FUNKY.
