Bird Song

Ice Stadium

Easily the best song of the first set. The whole band gets into this one.

If you dig those 1971 stand-alone Truckin's - you will like this.

Just Like Tom Thumb's Blues

Richfield Coliseum

....but this wasn't one of them.
Way To Go Home

The Palace

Vince is sounding good and Jerry shows that even close to the end, he can keep it together for a song here and there.
Samba In The Rain
July 6, 1995
Riverport Amphitheatre

Vince is confused as to when to start singing, which I guess you could argue makes him one of the boys. Jerry sounds like he cares and this is an overall solid version.
Doin' That Rag
March 1, 1969
Fillmore West

My God - how can this be buried where it is with the only vote for it the one that listed it? You people should be ashamed of yourselves. You deserve to be taken out around back and have the snot kicked out of you.
Samba In The Rain
June 8, 1994
Cal Expo

Strong vocals and a very strong performance by Jerry playing guitar, before he turned most of his work into midi trumpet for this song.
