One of the best Bobby versions. They tear this one up. Bobby's possessed. Jerry's on.

Bobby was on his game with the blues numbers in summer '85.

Killer run of "Stranger" -> "Eyes" -> "GDTRFB" -> "MSWS." What a great run at the end of June.

Sweet bustout at Keith and Donna's last show. Jerry's solo is great.

Fast, a bit sloppy, but Jerry's having a great time here.

Bit weird that this was the only song they repeated during this stand.

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.

Best version I've heard. Listening now as work quiets down.

Mickey attacks the beam during this sequence, exceptionally violent stuff. One of the most memorable performances of this combo.

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.
