China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider

Fast but very neat and tight. Cool version from the best run of 1986.

Motherfucker out of "Cold Rain & Snow." Shit hot and rockin'. A bit sloppy but full of energy.

Vince is admittedly awful here, but Phil and Jer make up for it. Cool version.

Not a great show, Jerry still finding strength after the coma. This BRB, however, smokes.

Always the little song that could in any set it appeared in. This one rocks.

The song is great and the band goes all-out for the jam.

Very good. I think 5/30/92 is better, though.

With Steve Miller, this version has three guitarists. The climax sounds even more melting. Turn this one WAAAAAY up.

You gotta hear this one. Along with 5/31/92 and 3/27/94, one of the Top 3 post-Hornsby "Morning Dew"'s, and maybe Top 5 among post-Brent. PERFECT dynamics, and Jerry nukes the climax.

'Very clean version with nice soloing by Jerry (reminiscent of 73/74 Eyes) and strong Phil vocals.' Like putting a Versace suit on a pile of dog feces. This song is absolute garbage.
