A sprawling and celebratory 2nd set opener to a fantastic under the radar show from 1987

Under the radar version from St. Patrick's Day '88. Really loose and shreddy, nice segue into Eyes

This needs more love. Outstanding version! Brent adds some really cool effects. The hunter matrix sounds really good.
Greatest Story Ever Told

P.N.E. Coliseum

Love this version! St Stephen lick at 3:30!

The Spectrum

Is this version truly only 4 minutes long or does it start at the slight Dark Star tease 10:20 minutes into Truckin'? It's all semantics but either way the Truckin' > Spanish Jam > Dark Star > Sing Me Back Home is over 40 minutes of great music!

grendel nailed this one. Swirling, dreamy, and meditative. A nice reflective ending to a spectacular show.

Expertly placed after telling the crowd to take a step back. A very sweet and delicate version. Nice dynamics.
