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

Yep, this one definitely should be closer to the top. Excellent version!
Desolation Row
Dec. 31, 1986
Kaiser Convention Center

One of my favorites. Jerry teases "Auld Lang Syne" during his solo after the ". . .playing the electric violin on Desolation Row" lyric about mid way through the song. It's a really cool solo.

Jerry hits all the right notes, this is a nice version. Needs more love.

This Other One melts my brain like an ice cube.
Take A Step Back
Dec. 8, 1973
Cameron Indoor Stadium, Duke U

Lots of funny antics during this one. Worth a listen for the laughs. Lots of teases too. Mexican Hat Dance, Tico Tico, It's A Sin, Teddy Bear's Picnic. . .I am probably missing a few.
