Classic China-Rider from a great run. 9/18/87 is legendary, but this show, and a lot of the shows from this tour, just as fantastic.

In any other month in any other year, this entire show would be considered a rip-roaring classic (which it is!!). Donna is awesome.

Raw, ragged, savage, pretty darn profound. Almost a Close Encounter out of Space... Always a gorgeous work in progress... Not the best, but....

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!
