Spank this one with BD - follows a Wicked Messenger (not LOA flavor) but still hot to see.

Sharp and clear as a bell.

Stagger Lee

Shoreline Amphitheatre

Super late era Stagger Lee - Jer's totally on and band is in tempo - Vince jams on the windchimes at the end which is weird but otherwise tight jam.

Jer all over the distortion bends & tonal action to find the range of torqueness needed for a damn fine Loser.

JG carves long lines on the 1st solo then he and Weir tee off completely on the 2nd - electric bamboo.

7 Lousy votes for what is arguably some of the most worthy hard jammed acid rock from your favorite band. Get back to the roots, run for the hills, Katie bar the door and try to put this fire out and good fucking luck. KILLER I repeat killer That's it for the Other One. The CE reprise in particular is basically the sounds of a Red Dwarf changing to Blue.
China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider

Oklahoma City Music Hall

Lots of ideas abound here and yes agree they stretch it out nicely - Jer's licks are exploring the outer edges of each song and Phil detonates in the Rider.
New Minglewood Blues
Aug. 16, 1980
Mississippi River Festival

Fiery and spanking nasty take. Recording captures the band/crowd energy really well too. The sight, sound and smells of this show are all right here. .

Yowzer - I had to go back and listen again. Whew boy that last solo is a wonderfully emotional, melodic trip that hits all the right notes for me.

Laced up '84 action with tasteful effects don't miss the Space into it...hmmmmm indeed this one has that certain SOMETHING.
