Man does this version have a good bounce to it. I would put this version up against any version from the 80's.

This version doesn't quit. Jerry's solo is relentless

Check out the really groovy pre-drums jam that comes out of this UJB.

Great swing to this version. Excellent Brent and Jerry solos. A gem of a show from an odd tour.

The Music Never Stopped

This version starts off tentative and Bob forgets most of the lyrics. You're thinking "Yeesh, this version is going to be a mess." Then the midsection jam starts. Great recovery but this version still lacks the steller Jerry peaks that the top notch versions have.

They pack a lot into a jam that is a little less than 10 minutes. Love this dreamy version.

I love the build up in this version.

Vince overpowers Jerry's vocals on the SBD, but this version has a nice flow otherwise. Jerry and Vince play well together here.

Interesting "Space" like jam before the segue into Foolish Heart.
