Great guitar work highlights this version, Jerry is dialed in from the get-go. Great show.

Posted the wrong date before; anyway, this is a scorcher.

Don't sleep on this one - super dark and intense version.

Great version that gets really spooky towards the end. Very nice exploratory passages with Jerry, Brent and the Devils especially shining.

An utterly whacked out version. Healy's vocal effects are just plain weird.

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.
