Disturbing, coherent space featuring Phil and Donna vocals, leading beautifully into Terrapin

Great jam. Jerry and Phil lead the way with Jerry finding some amazing spaces.

Love how Jerry starts his first solo. The rest is great too. His playing is easy and free.

Touch of Grey
June 16, 1990
Shoreline Amphitheatre

Oddly engrossing version of this difficult song, driven by Mickey and Brent.
Jack Straw

Cal Expo

Phil is on a mission here (check out the Bertha too). Right before his statement that contrary to rumor, he is not quitting the band.
Promised Land
March 29, 1990
Nassau Coliseum

First song after Branford first sat in, on "Bird Song," and you can tell Jerry is elated. Crushing version. Drummers were on their best behavior throughout this show as a musician was sitting in.
Stella Blue
March 24, 1990
Knickerbocker Arena

Exceptional solo and outro from Jerry; great vocals typical of his high emotion era
Throwing Stones
June 19, 1989
Shoreline Amphitheatre

Dig the Foolish Heart jam on this one. You heard me right
