I've commented earlier on the NFA portion of this sandy, but this GDTRFB is a considerably meaty portion as well! Very hot ish

Great energy, solid precision, band sounds like they are in the moment and having fun. Very enjoyable China > Rider
Feel Like A Stranger
July 10, 1989

Deep, sultry groove to open the show, paired with a triumphant Franklins. Agree with comment above on thick Phil groove work
Doin' That Rag

Jerry falsetto and crunchy, bouncy bluesy jam. Heater!

Digging this bouncy version. Excellent ramp up for the close

Capitol Theater

This version is everything. Jerry's licks leading into the jam portion are indelibly etched into my brain. I have no shame in double commenting - this one is one of the absolute tops and deserves dap.
