Killer high octane encore on the heels of a sweet Sugar Magnolia. No, Bob - thank you!!!

It starts off slow and lazy, but as the tune begins to unfold, the tempo gets faster until they are just killing it as a band with the pre-SSDD jam.

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
Sept. 24, 1987
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
June 29, 1980
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.
