Standing On The Moon
Dec. 30, 1989
Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum Arena

Passionate vocals and Jerry torches the solo something righteous.

Swirling, dreamlike version to end a great 1st set.

When I Paint My Masterpiece

Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum Arena

Not a song I often acknowledge, but Bobby delivers a great vocal here. Good performance all around.

Throwaway song, but this version cooks.

New Speedway Boogie
Oct. 15, 1994
Madison Square Garden

The passage where Jerry dips into his lower register for the "This darkness..." refrain...chills.
Turn On Your Love Light
March 21, 1994
Richfield Coliseum

Excellent version with great energy and the split is a nice touch! They were inspired this evening.
Sugaree
July 19, 1989
Alpine Valley Music Theatre

I'm the biggest Alpine '89 fan but I forgot how fucking great this "Sugaree" is. Jerry's solo before the "pouring rain" verse is an absolute monster. I'd put it up there with the 1977 Goliaths, but I'll probably listen to another one from 1974 or 1982 or whenever and say the same thing. The beauty of the band.
Hell in a Bucket
Dec. 31, 1984
SF Civic

This should be higher, roars at top speed.

First version I ever heard. Loved it from the get-go.
