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.

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!

Absolutely killer show with one of the all-time best Lost>Saints. This Stranger has one of the most organized jams I've ever heard. Great work from the boys.

Okay, you HAVE to listen to this source: http://archive.org/details/gd1985-06-24.mtx.pytlik.32310.sbeok.flac16 There are some sonic issues at the beginning that cause Jerry's vocal track to spit and duplicate. It sounds like there are four Jerry's singing in unison, and it is fucking cool! Hands down best Alabama. The band is just on, and Jerry really belts out the vocals.
