Ramble On Rose

Cal Expo

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

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.

Absolutely gorgeous version. Has the majesty of something like "Terrapin" while maintaining the song's apocalyptic intensity.

Tight and crispy from an amazing show.

Sphinx Theatre

This version is incredible. The Egypt shows are incredibly uneven, but the Ollin -> Fire -> Aiko is absolutely fucking awesome.

I have to agree that Vince's synth sax sounds really jarring against Branford's much better playing on an actual friggin' saxophone. Shame, because the jam is otherwise absolute aces.

I've been on a kick with "LIG" lately....this one left me breathless.
