Wolf's tone is even killer on Mama. I have no problem saying this is best ever.

It's a nice one, but the Cap version is the definitive. Listen for yourself.

Hot version with an Easy Answers in it. The jam out of Easy Answers flat out smokes.

Could do no wrong at this show...even the Miracle smokes. This one blows away 90% of all the versions out there.

This is as good as it gets...Jerry gets mean with one of his last solos.

The notes are so sweet even on the audience recording. Man was Jer excited about playing Wolf for the first time in 2 years.

This starts off one of the most amazing shows ever by this band. You could put almost each version in the top 3 regardless of the present vote count. Wolf's tone makes this show unique to any 77 show. I highly recommend listening to this whole show and you will hear.
