Speedy late 70's precision. Hot relic from a sweet run. (also, trying to add 7.4.89 and keep getting an error message. Version needs recognition)

Baller Jerry track that made the jump to the big leagues. They lock in nicely to this version

I have an odd love affair for this song and Euro '72 was its peak. UK a few nights later is far superior, but this one certainly has sufficient gusto

Very sweet version. Boys hit a nice sweet spot in this jam. '91 was a decent year for this tune.

Holy hellfire! This version defies words. Listened to this 3 times today to make up for not having heard it before. I love how the machine gun jamming finally calms down, then on the drop of a dime Billy kicks back in and the boys are instantly in high gear again. Priceless!
