Ramble On Rose

Cal Expo

1989 was a banner year for this song. Brent is on fire and Jerry is, well, Jerry. Killer version.

Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum

The symbolism of playing this one at Keith & Donna's last show makes this one significant. Great version.

Really strong version. Jerry's vocals are particularly sharp and playful here. Bobby and Brent deliver big here.

This is an outstanding latter day "Cumberland" and should have more votes. The band is super locked in here.
New Minglewood Blues
Dec. 28, 1991
Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum Stadium

Incredible version. This whole show is as good as any they ever played. Even Vince was better than he'd ever be at this one.
Foolish Heart
Dec. 28, 1991
Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum Stadium

MONSTER version.
Morning Dew

Knickerbocker Arena

Listened to this one last night. It started off rough, but Jerry pulls it together by the end and the climax is worth it, though it ends a bit abruptly. It's got nothing on 3/27/94 as far as late era Dews go.
Unbroken Chain
March 23, 1995
Charlotte Coliseum

This is the best version because it's the only version where someone other than Phil seems to be fully invested in it. God Bless Hornsby, he pulled the band out of a ton of quagmires.
