My favorite stand-alone version. This one absolutely rocks.

Great work from Bruce and Vince. Not the flashiest for Jerry, but he's still good here.

How did this one not make it up? This a full steam ahead rock and roll explosion that never lets up.

This one of the most underrated shows of their best year. This is a gorgeous "SOF" with a gold standard Jerry solo.

Comes A Time

Knickerbocker Arena

Jerry's weathered voice is great here, but his solos, oh man the solos, killer emotional stuff.

Madison Square Garden

Completely epic version. Except for 12/16/94, I enjoy this even more than the ones with Branford. They let Murray do a lot more and he takes charge during the jam.
Wang Dang Doodle

Deer Creek Music Center

What are your top two? 3/20 and 12/16?
Eyes Of The World

Knickerbocker Arena

Maybe the best post-Hornsby version. Relaxed groove, beautiful work from Jerry.
He's Gone
Sept. 14, 1991
Madison Square Garden

Still my go-to version. They are absolutely singing this for Brent. No other version has such an emotional pull for me. A perfect version.
