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 a killer version. However, I never dug it as a closer as it usually meant the post drums was 2 songs. This show is so short...46 minute 1st set, 29 minute pre drums, and this brief post drums. Nice SOTM, but I would feel pretty cheated if I went to that show. Needs more than some fanning at the end of the SOTM closer. It ain't Morning Dew.

Pretty cool to hear the Dead as the backing band for Bruce. Killer tune.
