Great end to a big combo.

Swirling organ and guitar. Raw energy.

Ender to a very good first set. Jerry in fine form vocally, and he and Marsalis and musical in their sparseness.

Dark and moody version. Phil. The full ensemble drop into the minor for the solo break.

Nice version with good band interplay. I loved the jam at the end, although I thought the landing into "Estimated" was rocky. Great stand-alone!

I liked this version, but don't think it works where they have it placed in the set (although it definitely helps give this first set a character quite different from the others in this three-show run).
Let The Good Times Roll

I did like the opener; it's nice to hear something new(er) in this slot!

Eh, I was indifferent. Too fast for my taste, and the solo doesn’t do anything but ornament the melody.

Huge bust out (four and a half years), and Phil works it.
