This version is big ol' fun! Bobby's very enthusiastic on the backing vocals.

This isn't here because...? Totally hot, Jerry and Brent experiment with some interesting tones during the jam. Unique. From a flamethrower of a show.

Along with "Touch" and "Candyman," one of the big emotional highlights of Jerry's return.

Nice Phil / Jerry interplay into "Terrapin."

The Other One

Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum Arena

This one needs to shoot up the list. The jams on this one kind of remind me of the 7/29/88 "Playing": frighteningly intense, unrelenting, you feel like you might not survive it, it's that heavy. The drummers and Brent are on a warpath here. A 'take no prisoners' version if there ever was one.

Excellent version from an excellent show.

This one should be leagues higher than it is. This song hit its peak in 1990-91. Phil is a monster and the finale is off the charts.
Eyes Of The World
Sept. 18, 1990
Madison Square Garden

This is an exquisite version. Around 11:40 Jerry fans the absolute fuck out of the peak like I've never heard before on an "Eyes."

Giants Stadium

Best post-Brent version by a huge margin, maybe even best of the 1990-95 era. Killer version, killer show. It's gonna rock on the big screen.
