Bird Song
Sept. 15, 1990
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.

Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain
Sept. 13, 1993
The Spectrum

Not sure why this one is so high. It's a solid version, but it's not mind blowingly creaitive or unique. A reliably workman like version.
Dark Star
Sept. 13, 1993
The Spectrum

For one of the 5 minute "Dark Star"'s that became the norm after 1992, this one is very enjoyable for what's there. Spacey, creepy version. The pre-Drums set at this show is pretty amazing.
Big Railroad Blues
June 21, 1980
West High Auditorium

Should be way higher. This version destroys.
Playin' In The Band
Oct. 31, 1991
Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum

"Playin'" was not performed at this show, it was played on the 28th.
Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain
Dec. 31, 1984
SF Civic

This one is truly a spectacular version. The end of "Fire" is like no other, dirty and emotional.
