Intriguing Set 2 opener "Scarlet -> Sugar." Nice MIDI at the end.

This one shines from my favorite Hornsby show.

Man was 1990 a good year for this song. Terrific version, great solo, nice ragtime-y work from Bruce. Just exactly perfect.

Listened to this show because it was played the day I was born. A great Hornsby era version.

Soldier Field

This should be higher as well. The whole band absolutely attacks the song. It has a punch few others do.

MASSIVE jam here. Jerry and Bruce destroy this one. Top 5.

Alexandra Palace

This should have 100+ votes. It's an absolutely massive version. So quiet and pretty most of the time than just frightens the shit out of you unrelentingly. Incredible version; Billy is on fire here.

Love this version a lot. Jerry's on fire every second of the first set.

Madison Square Garden

One of the very best post-Brent performances of any song. Jerry is as good as he's ever been here.
