The Worcester crowd is really into it. Another hot version. Aren't they almost always hot?

Jerry singing Big Boss Man to open the show - and nobody has mentioned this yet?

This era is overlooked and underappreciated. This - like most around this time - cooks.

Love the restraint Jerry plays with during the second instrumental break. Very measured and disciplined.

Bob's rap starts off with an indirect mention of Pigpen.

Really good version. Jerry's vocals and guitar work are spot on. Phil and Keith both put in some nice work. Did Bob take a bathroom break?

Playing this song with Jerry's voice in the shape it's in is questionable at best. That aside, he plays some mean guitar during the instrumental break. Best ever? Not even close, given Jerry's constantly faltering voice.

There isn't much room in this song for Jerry to cut loose, but he does a fine job here.

Jerry puts in some nice guitar work, but Bob's voice is shot and at times sounds awful.
