Worthy, discursive version from an amazing month.

Jerry just attacks this one (vocally too) right from the outset. I love summer '89.

As focused and energetic as the rest of the show, Jerry plays with the phrasing of his solos without missing a beat.

Another noteworthy '77 version. Listen for Jerry's melodic lines over Bob and Donna's vocal coda.

I already upvoted this, which shows it’s caught my attention before. Terrific Estimated from maybe its best year. Whatever Phil is doing at the end is very striking.
