Billy is pretty aggressive, as he is this whole show, and Jerry's soloing is hot...

Flowing straight out of a fantastic 'Half-Step,' this is a goon one. It's between '71 and '72 for the best year for 'Sugar Mags' IMO...

Jerry's solo has a bit of a '73 feel on this one...that liquid, mellow intensity.

Tight, well-sung and really buzzing with energy. Keith has some great flourishes.

Hilarious intro as Bob and Jerry come in out of time with Phil. Hot one once they get going -- especially Billy, who's really 'on' at this show...

Very nice one. Jerry hits those closing notes with passion.

Is it just me, or does Jerry sing this one with extra gusto?

This one covers a lot of ground in 10 minutes...wow! Elegant, just like the DS later in the show.

Keith is really tearing it up (as are the others).
