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.

Madison Square Garden

This version is incendiary. Good chawed vocals from Bob and Murray and Cotton add great energy.
New Minglewood Blues

Madison Square Garden

This version smokes. This was one number where Vince usually killed it.
Samba In The Rain
Oct. 14, 1994
Madison Square Garden

Good version of a shit song. When 1994 was on, it was on. Too bad the lows are just as frequent and potent.

This and the Dave Murray version really made me take notice of this song. Not a particularly showy number, but very lovely. Great song.

Rosemont Horizon

Supreme version. Best of 1994, and that was a great year for this gem.
