Really? It sure didn't kill me. Well, actually listening to it almost did put me to sleep. Why does FM play GDW so wimpy?? This is one of the wimpiest versions I've ever heard. Where's the jam at the end?? The only decent live version I've ever heard from FM was the Japan 1977 version. And Philly 1977, I guess. I'm sorry, but FM just can't play GDW, it's just so DEAD. After Stevie sings the tag, it just fizzles, but what's worse is that it stays that way until the end. You can't even really tell when it's over; you have to listen for the complete silence and then maybe it's over. Even Stevie's current solo band plays it better. And even the Sound City show band was more faithful to the album version and jammed the end. I actually stayed awake and was moving around for that band's version.
