Unique segue into Cumberland Blues. A nice little adventure away from the normal Rider.

A nice tasty treat from '86. Really well executed and triumphant version. Check out the recent soundboard of this show posted by Mr. Miller.

This version has a nice flow about it. A really solid version for '86. Worth checking out.

Tight Set 2 opener that nicely segues into Playin'.

The zippy cocaine fueled '78 shows are fun listens and this is a great example of that. It's the lyrical mess-ups that make this version enjoyable to me. The laughter, and when Bob says "You Fucked Me Up". They were having fun on stage. Nice segue into Mama Tried.

Great execution and passion with this version. Love the crescendo. Might be my favorite version.
