Stella Blue

Star Lake Amphitheater

Jerry's guitar scorches throughout, with genuine pin drop moments, followed by sweeping beauty. Coda laments for Stella are short but sweet.

Just Like Tom Thumb's Blues
Dec. 27, 1989
Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum

Started out on Heineken and soon hit the harder stuff! A ton of fun for all as Phil makes up the words, has a few funny asides and Jerry attempts some funky midi flute until you can pretty much hear him shake his head and laugh at himself….! For some, this tune was a bathroom break… but for most it was a rare chance for us to get our Phil!
