Bob really over enunciates all the lyrics which makes this version somewhat unique.

This splendid version of Bird Song includes plenty of bird sounds and a spirited jam segment that crescendos magnificently into an uplifting climax.

The Truckin > TOO > Drums > Space> IWTYH > TOO features some great jamming. I feel like this one is flying under the radar.
Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain

I found this version quite fun and unique. The MIDI jams in Scarlet blast you way back to that 80's sound. The Brent, Jerry, and Phil interplay during the FOTM intro is fantastic. Jerry has the scratchy 80's voice but he's engaged. There were certainly harvesting the energy of the Loma Prieta earthquake on this night.

This show get lost in the shadows of 10/16, it's a worthy listen and this Estimated shows why.

Jerry's voice is shaky but his playing is real nice.

This one sounds big and powerful. Nice bass work by Phil.
