BEAM! Very trippy. This show is just amazing. Get the SBDMC>DAT>CDR source.

Scary freaking version with ghosty Donna wails. Nice transition into a tear-jerking Wharf Rat.

Just exactly perfect version with crisp Jerry leads and Reading Rainbow tone on Brent's piano. Superior '83 playin'.

An expert rendition. Jerry is using his crispy Rosebud tone. The band is tight, and Jerry sings it beautifully. My favorite latter-era tune.

Music Hall

Hair-raising 1st set opener. Phil is all over his fretboard. A unique performance with a lot of thick piano work from Keith. Driving drummers!

This one gets very heady. Phil kicking ass throughout. This whole show is pure gold.

Great performance of the whole suite with Pig on Hammond organ.

Winterland Arena

Best non-acoustic version for sure. In a New-Speedway-Boogie kinda way.

Perhaps in the top 3 highlights from the Egypt shows? Along with Iko and Ollin>FOTM?
