Not my favorite way for Jerry to play it, but it still rocks.

Jerry is all over the map with the lyrics.

It would be better if they played it a little faster.

Probably the most hated song they played - even moreso than Day Job.

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.
