A great one from summer '90. Vocals are crisp, musically the organ work is great and the band is tight and all in the flow.

Jerry solo for most of it with some effects from time to time. Unique. And then it goes into Dew

This song is not really in a "heady" format, but I always liked it as a 1st set tune. This version is well.played as is this show.

Yes 1984. I love the ups that happen in this year. This version has a lot of great energy from the boys. Mid-song solo is very strong.

Loved Brent's vocals and organ on this song. I do feel that 12/26/79 is the best ever. Over the years this song seemed to always be consistently good.

No doubts. A beautiful version and it is the best. So very heartfelt and a great transition after the 3-headed monster that starts this 2nd set. Not sure why the song wasn't included on Built to Last or why it didn't stay in the lineup. Jerry had his reasons I'm sure.
