Greek Theater

Honored to be the one to submit this one even if I'm shocked it's not here. This is an outstanding version. Brent is spectacular here on all fronts.

Sugar Magnolia
March 23, 1981
Rainbow Theatre

Out of "Stella" comes a thrashy, supercharged, cocaine infused "Sugar Magnolia" that's just delightful.

The Other One
Sept. 26, 1991
Boston Garden

The Magnificent Seven lineup of 1991 strike again with this trippy little concoction. Flows beautifully into verse 2 of "Dark Star."

Space
Oct. 31, 1991
Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum

Ferocious beam banging. Disembodied Vader voices. Frightening, unhinged "Space." Leads perfectly back into "Dark Star."

Friend of the Devil
Dec. 5, 1981
Market Square Arena

Outstanding version with beautiful keyboard work from Brent. Can't believe this one hadn't been posted yet.

I love this version. Which they kept it like this.
Comes A Time
June 28, 1985
Hershey Park Stadium

What a trio! Must've motivated to Bobby to grab the spotlight back with the kickass TMNS that followed.

Hershey Park Stadium

Powerful version that could use a few more votes. Jerry's voice is strained and cracks a couple of times, but he's giving it his all and the guitar work is excellent, Phil's also all over this one.
Spanish Jam
May 30, 1992
Sam Boyd Silver Bowl

First one since 1987, and honestly one of the better ones I've heard. Amazingly beautiful, everyone's together for this one.

Sam Boyd Silver Bowl

Jerry had some tech issues in this first set, that's probably it's not as widely known. But the whole band is really on.
