This continues the cool groove of the Col Rain. Great version. This show needs to be listened to.

Encore only available via box set. Incredible energy with extended fanning as should be expected from the only time played as an encore.

This is a spectacular version for this era. I'd recommend listening to this whole show. Like I said, I'm confused by the lack of support for this night.

The outro has some excellent fanning and beautiful work from Keith and Bob. Not sure why this Egypt stuff gets overlooked. One of my all time favorite shows.

The definitive! The refrain is repeated more than usual and becomes more powerful lyrically and musically until it goes into the best stand alone Fire ever played.
