A rockin' reprise out of a haunting "China Doll."

I...can't believe I'm submitting this...but Jerry lays down a very good solo worth hearing once.

Torched rendition. 5/26 gets all the attention but 5/27 is pretty fucking excellent as well.

Frost Amphitheatre

Jerry modifies the intro and delivers a riveting solo later on.

The Wheel
July 19, 1989
Alpine Valley Music Theatre

Bit weird that this was the only song they repeated during this stand.
Dark Star
April 1, 1991
Greensboro Coliseum

This version should be waaaaaay higher. The band is locked in, and it goes through just about every mood and color you'd expect out of "Dark Star" jams. Such a complete version. Can hang with 1968-74.
Feel Like A Stranger
Oct. 12, 1984
Augusta Civic Center

Best version I've heard. Listening now as work quiets down.
Drums -> Space
Oct. 27, 1991
Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum

Mickey attacks the beam during this sequence, exceptionally violent stuff. One of the most memorable performances of this combo.
Dark Star
March 20, 1992
Copps Coliseum

The last great one indeed. This whole show is excellent. I really like how Bruce carried the 1991-92 "Dark Star"'s. 1991/09/26 is another great one where he steals the show.
