Bird Song

Madison Square Garden

Hornsby's first "Bird Song" as a member is nearly 15 minutes of bliss. Nice harmonies, too.

For 1995, surprisingly sharp.

Crazy Fingers
Oct. 17, 1994
Madison Square Garden

The intro is a bit messy (what else is new), but Jerry's swift fills and impassioned vocals are the stars here.

Autzen Stadium

Haunting like all of them. Jerry's solo starts a bit dull but he hits his stride pretty quickly.

He's Gone
Sept. 14, 1991
Madison Square Garden

This is my favorite version of "He's Gone." There's just something so haunting about it. A year after he passed, this is the one where I feel Brent's spectre lurking the most. It has a real heaviness to it. Great singing from Jerry, great solo as well, and Bruce adds his touch as well.
Stella Blue
May 26, 1995
Memorial Stadium

Every 1994-95 "Stella" has an incredible emotional weight to it.
Dire Wolf
Oct. 3, 1994
Boston Garden

Great late day version. Very spry.
All Along the Watchtower
March 27, 1993
Knickerbocker Arena

Amazing version. Great show.
Wharf Rat
June 16, 1985
Greek Theater

(cont'd) His harmonies are gorgeous, and his organ work really adds an additional foreboding atmosphere to an already dark song.
