Queen Jane Approximately

Greek Theatre, U. Of California

Lovely and strong Queen Jane. It starts strong and doesn't waste any time and leads into an inspiring solo. Where it ranks? I have it in my top 3. It's strong and no flubs and good tempo and the solo inspires. The key work from Brent... Holy smokes. So Brent attempted this violin organ sound keys in Boston with Friend of the devil (I strongly believe If memory serves me correct..), and it came off slightly rough.. Still innovative and impressive but slightly rougher, but still impressive .. But he absolutely NAILED it here and was so moving and beautiful, --- Request: if any of my friends have any other performances were Brent has similar key sounds to that violin in the beginning of his solo, I'd be super appreciative. Grateful! Up vote!!

Gorgeous job here ! I absolutely love the finding this in a set list. Brent does has some angelic keywork here. Jerry's solo is so inspiring like much of of his work in '89. This is just beautiful start to finish, top to bottom.

The recording is outstanding for this one. Tempo this is gold standard, not to fast or to slow. The whole band is on fire here and really tight even this early in! Awesome listen!! so grateful to have this
