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

The Music Never Stopped
Oct. 21, 1983
Worcester Centrum

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.
Playin' In The Band

Cobo Arena

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.
Foolish Heart
March 28, 1991
Nassau Coliseum

Vince overpowers Jerry's vocals on the SBD, but this version has a nice flow otherwise. Jerry and Vince play well together here.
Victim Or The Crime
March 28, 1991
Nassau Coliseum

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