I usually don't comment on shows or recordings because for me they are all great and we are blessed to have had Jerry and the boys for so long. Some shows are better than others and some years are tighter than others, I agree. For the person who commented he played guitar as a second profession for 35 years and he couldn't hear traces of Wang Dang Doodle in the riffs Jerry was playing. Right out of the box, you can hear the early makings of Wang Dang Doodle.

who care if they call it "wang dand doodle" or whatever else. it sounds great. to my ears, it sounds like a loose instrumental cover version of "w-w-d". anyway, keith shines on the organ on this track. and a few others. difffernet side of him, we don't usually hear. Jerry's leads throughout this evening also sound extra inspired. there must've a good mix of the kool=aid that night. but it sucks that casey jones had to end because of a fight in the audience.
