It won't make you a Candyman fan, but if you dig that already, you will like this.

Phil and Vince lead the way. The rest of the band sounds like they took the day off.

Short one, only 4:37, but what's there is crisp and well-played.

Yeah, it's the best out there. If you have to find faults, it is kinda rough sounding and Jerry has that whiny singing voice. Still, it's the best.

Oakland Auditorium

Brent explodes during the first instrumental break, then Jerry takes the lead. After some solid vocals, Jerry jams it out tight. Not just a throwaway version.

Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum

Nice instrumental break jamming from Jerry and Vice. Great vocals by Bob and some nice harmonies. More 1991 sweetness.
Desolation Row

Berkeley Community Theater

Yeah, he flubs things a couple of times, but overall the vocals are good.
Dire Wolf

Freeborn Hall, University of California

Short but sweet instrumental break for Jerry.
