Bird Song

Madison Square Garden

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

RFK Stadium

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.

Days Between

Autzen Stadium

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

MSG, Baby! Good start to the last show ever at the venue.

Morning Dew

Augusta Civic Center

I think my head exploded the first time I listened to this one. It's almost not human how intense this bad boy is.
She Belongs To Me
Nov. 1, 1985
Richmond Coliseum

One of the absolute highlights of Jerry's entire output as a guitarist. I teared up at just how beautiful this version is.
El Paso
Oct. 14, 1994
Madison Square Garden

This is my favorite "El Paso." Bob's acoustic guitar adds a very appropriate touch, and the way Jerry and Phil decorate it is fantastic.

The Palace

Fantastic late day "Bertha." They're really on fire for this one.
Wang Dang Doodle
July 2, 1989
Sullivan Stadium

This version should be at the top. It's unusually spooky and driven, compared to the more relaxed versions that followed.
