MIDI Horn fest on Jerry's end + the Vince synths make this an interesting MSWM. Carrying over the tame energy from the Eyes beforehand. Solo Vince

Stuck Inside of Mobile with the Memphis Blues Again

Sandstone Amphitheatre

Excellent dueling keyboard version - Bruce on accordion and Vince on the synths. I love the Brent versions with the B3, but the keys fit well here

Shoreline Amphitheatre

Jerry repeats "Look out Stagger Lee" with quite a bit of fervor at the end, excellent version. Entire band is locked into high gear

Not Fade Away
Aug. 19, 1989
Greek Theatre, U. Of California

Nearly gets to some of that primal Dead energy, such a great version is definitely underrated
Eyes Of The World

The Spectrum

NOT performed on this date, last played 9/8/90, next played 9/18/90
Spoonful
Sept. 11, 1990
The Spectrum

There is simply not a better Spoonful around, sorry. Entire second set might comprise one of the top 3 nights of the entire year, let alone the '90s or Vince era. Never really hear the band truly dig THIS deep until parts of Spring 91 and 12/28/91 Same Thing bust out. Incredible leading by Phil in the jam on this one
He's Gone

The Spectrum

One of the best of the year melts into the BEST Spoonful not just of the year but ever. R.I.P. Brent
Estimated Prophet

Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum

Very nice, unexpectedly deep Estimated. Love the Jerry noodling at the end before he goes all in for Eyes
