In most ways typical of era but I wanted to note it for how fine Donna's voice is throughout this one.

Nice pacing with good energy. Playing is good with exception of Bobby's slide solo, which falls into that period of out of tune passion.

This is a really smoking version. The playing is great with high intensity and energy.

Nice transition from the drums. Good energy and firm attitude towards the song. Crowd enjoying it very much. Nice fading at the end.

So many good version in May '77, and this is towards the top.

Surprised this doesn't have more votes. Comes out of nowhere after a several month break, preceded by a several year break before that. Good energy and love comes from this version.

Nicely done. Generally not a big fan of this song, but this one is worthy.

Oh man, this needs a little love. The playing on this is very good.
