If you like '91 you'll love the 4 headed weather song attack with great versions of CRS, BTW!, Jimmy! LLR! and they play Box of Rain...

Killer version during 3 cold great nights in Chicago. Jerry does some turbo plucking towards the end. Very solid SBD

A top ten Jackie for sure. Blows any version post '79 way outta the water. It even has a Nashville flavor you'll have to listen yourself to taste it!

Don't overlook the amazing vocals and Keith's bouncy playing on this one
Here Comes Sunshine

Winterland Arena

This one belongs on the top - with 10/25/73 and 11/14/73 not far behind

This is the one. If it weren't for the significance of 7/9/95, this one would have to be considered the biggest tear jerker of all the SMR. The final refrain is so damn powerful

Those church bells that Bruce(?) lays down during the infancy of Franklin's are so damn beautiful.
