My favorite stand-alone version. This one absolutely rocks.

Great work from Bruce and Vince. Not the flashiest for Jerry, but he's still good here.

How did this one not make it up? This a full steam ahead rock and roll explosion that never lets up.

This one of the most underrated shows of their best year. This is a gorgeous "SOF" with a gold standard Jerry solo.

This may be my favorite. Jerry's vocals and playing are both lovely.

Sounds like they tease "Satisfaction" at the beginning.

Brent is outstanding here.

Upvoting this to draw attention to how spectacularly horrendous this performance is. It's something to behold.

I was just about ask that...the key for "Fire" is different. What an outlier. Bruce is great here and outshines Jerry, who's rarely sounded froggier. I think 4/7/85 is the only show where I've heard him sound worse.
