Strong Phil and great vocals version. Just so tight throughout. Triumphant version as the pre-end-jam-era versions go.

The band builds it up beautifully to the "Won't you tell everyone you meet" verse.

Tripped.-out long and interesting rendition. There's no particular direction that this jam plans to go. I like hearing that point where the crowd realizes they've tread new ground with the group.

Philadelphia Civic Center

Yes for sure, this one did slip, through is right. The intro to this Fire is in fact very special. It is just beautiful. What Brent is doing on the keys is, wow, amazing. The band drifts effortlessly into the Fire, as a single being. Fantastic!

The jam rolls and rolls and then almost goes silent before it takes off again. So great!
