It's All Over Now Baby Blue

San Francisco Civic Auditorium

The capper to a rather sad show Otis passed earlier in the day and Bobby is a mess. This melancholy ballad fits the mood and Jerry brings the passion.

Love the tambourine sound in the beginning and love Jerry throwing in a few extra rips during some of his parts. Bob goes full rock star at one point.

This one musically is fantastic. It’s played so well. It’s a shame the lyrics aren’t as strong. Particularly weir who seems to be signing too loud

Well sung by Jerry. One Minor flub but what’s sung is clean and crisp. Playing is nice engaging opener played well.

Somehow missed this one all these years. Always a welcome addition to a set list.

Jerry is on FIRE! Bob Dylan is fairly clear vocally this is a FUN version. maybe the best from their whole 1987 tour together. Jerry is so into this.Ligntning Garcia Leads. Bobby is playing his heart out as well and phil and the drummers are cooking along. This is GREAT hot stuff! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m92FGd4tAhY&t=30s
