Aiko opener, you KNOW! it's gonna be a good show. Little Bobby mic issue, but they seem to be hooked in from the start.

This one smokes from start to finish, a fire version to heat up the first set to a GREAT! '87 show!

The big man is hot! on fire, and grimey during this song and this whole show. He's smiling, having a good ole time swinging, and sweatin in the muggy Philly heat in July! Everyone! is on at this show!

The vocals are better in Buffalo, but who's here for Jerry's fuckin vocals! AmIRight?
Sunrise
May 9, 1977
War Memorial

Sandwiched between definitive versions of Peggy-O and The Music Never Stopped, this Sunrise sounds sublime, 70's perfection. Donna's voice is absolutely beautiful here.

Keith is so locked in here, no Bobby is so locked in here, no no no Jerry is so locked in here, wait no Billy is so locked in here, no Phil, no Mickey.......

Capital Centre

Although the Brent scat is unique on the Dosin' release, this version is just plain better. It's got a headnodding groove that I think of when I think of this song.
