Foolish Heart
Dec. 15, 1994
Sports Arena

This is a fantastic late era version. The lyrics all have that something extra ( a few very minor late flubs) Passionate and well done overall and Jerry lays down some very tasty guitar lines. Long and exhilarating version of a song I do really like.

There is a slight hiccup at the beginning of help but it is more than made up for by the time they roll into that ridiculous slipknot. THis whole show is a good one for fans of Mr. Lesh.
Shakedown Street

I agree with the guys on archive talking about Brent having a little PFunk flavor at times this evening particularly on this HOT shakedown this is one of my favorite early 80's shows an era I generally don't listen to a ton but am starting to a little more, with gems like this how could you not? WHen Jerry is on as he is at this show the energy is unbelivable the pace is MACH 10 here. Great stuff for much of the show.
Morning Dew
April 26, 1983
The Spectrum

Lots of Phil on this Dew. average vocally but played to the top of its ability for the times. The truckin before it is seriously smoking hot. But they do play the hell out of this version Jerry rips it to shreds and like i said earlier lots of Phil.
Truckin'
April 26, 1983
The Spectrum

Aggressive Bobby Vocals, nice runs by Brent tons of Phil and Jerry. This is a burner played at a pretty aggressive speed for truckin'. Nice fills by the drummers this is wonderful version with real strong background vocals from Brent and Jerry. The boys are definitely feeling it on this hot version, Bobby just spitting out the lyrics is so awesome Brent and Jerry just backing him up aggressively as well this is smoking. Jerry bending those notes nicely. Bobby goes crazy vocally towards the end, wonderful leads to an all too brief No Bodys Fault But Mine jam out of the epilogue this is about as hot as I've heard from 1983. Magnificent The Phil Bombs towards the end are speaker rattlers, awesome stuff please give it a listen. There's a second or two at the end where you think they may go into spoonful then band it beautifully into a nice Morning Dew.
