Really on performance, this is a real animated performance, Vince is shinning, Jerry even throws in some sweet backing vocals.

Proving they could still bring some fire even in 1995 this is a growling hot smoking opener. Bobby is possessed and Jerry lays down some nice runs.

Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain
Feb. 26, 1990
Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum Arena

VEry cool 30+ minute version, tons of midi effects, Jerry muffs the lyrics a little but overall sings it strong, The Jamming is intense and they are having fun with their toys on this one. Loads of stuff happening here like all 1990 Scarlet ->Fires. It is making sometimes get more out of them than they clean sterile monsters from 1977-78. Wicked loads of Bobby, brent, Phil, Jerry and the drummers. Wickedly heady shit Love it very strong Jamming monster.
All Along the Watchtower

Coliseum Arean

Tremendous some of these 1989 Watchtowers are out of this world, Jerry is just straight killing it, and Bobby sounds Possessed Brent is a madman on the keys. This is a frantic manic fantastic version, The inflections Bobby gives the lyrics are tremendous this is heady, classic, killer, amazing, jammy, incredible, undeniable, stuff. Jerry is just ripping notes like a fu@#!^& madman! Put this on for your rock n roll fans that don't like the dead especially those that think they are to slow. This can be a jaw dropper when you either tell them who it is or they realize it, kind of like reconstruction when you tell people that's Jerry.

I think that brent is fantastic on this version and Jerry rips a nice solo, I enjoy it more than the original poster, Real nice runs from Jerry tons of Brent, Phil Bombs, give me more please is all i could ask for.
China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider
Dec. 10, 1989
Meadowlands Arena

Very peppy upbeat version, Jerry just naling the wish i was a headlight line. Brent is all over this version trying to sjow off for Bruce maybe who is sitting in on accordion for this great song coupling. Even gets a cool solo which he nails of course, this is so rocking , fun stuff right here. Great recording on archive as well. Jerry just blistering hot and Brent rightthere pushing him on. A little Feedback starts spewing with notes and brents pounding away its hot as hell!
Victim Or The Crime

Meadowlands Arena

Very crazy and long early version, with Mickey giving the beam a nice workout and Jerry just in full jedi mode. This is a spacey spontaneous amazing and creative early version of this song. Very triply Jerry is in the zone on this wonderful fun just a great heady journey. Blows apart to almost near silence and comes roaring back for the climax like the killer at the end of a horror movie for one last thrill.
