I Need A Miracle
Oct. 27, 1991
Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum

This is a great performance from the underappreciated October 1991 run of 4 shows. At times we get a full on 7 man jam, and Bruce once again is playing sparkling piano. But what really stands out is Phil. He makes his presence felt from beginning to end and at one point is even playing the melody. Definately worth a listen.
Never Trust A Woman
May 11, 1986
Frost Amphitheatre

Good vocals and solo by Brent. Unlike some other Brent songs, Jerry feels comfortable and puts in a nice solo. Brent drops not one, but 2 F Bombs!
Hell in a Bucket

The Spectrum

I think this is Bob's way of making up for playing Esau earlier.
Don't Ease Me In
Dec. 12, 1973
Omni Coliseum

Yes, Jerry omits a line, but his guitar work more than makes up for it. During the second instrumental break, Jerry plays an ascending jam and Keith plays a descending one. Worth a listen.
Don't Ease Me In

Pauley Pavilion

Nice extended solo by Brent and Jerry's solo is different from the usual. I won't spoil it for you. Go ahead and listen - it's less than 4 minutes long.
