Billy's doing some interesting stuff on the drums here! And excellent solo from Jer! Vocals too!

74 versions really captured the western tone well. Short and sweet.

Jerry calls for Bertha then proceed to royally flub the lyrics LOL. Solid bouncy version though.

Phil and Brent really escalate the dance party factor of this tune in later years. Great performance this night. Just sheer fun. Comes to awk end.

Every time I hear this I can't not be astounded by Bobby. He absolutely DRIIIIIIVES this transition. Does exactly what he needs to and soars with it.

Reaches a very nice peak too, and they launch out of it to the last verse with great ease too, which is hit or miss section with the later version. Good this time nonetheless.

Some classic but great guitar stuff happening from Jer on the solo.
