Nevada County Fairgrounds

This show proves hot out of the gate with this fiercely jammed Jack Straw. The Andrew F recording sounds amazing, too.

Not Fade Away
April 5, 1989
Crisler Arena

More evidence for the NFAissance of 1989. Torn to shreds.

Drums -> Space
July 15, 1984
Greek Theatre - University of California

Xylophone loop madness in Drums, then a creepy two-note riff by Bobby surfaces several times in Space.

Feel Like A Stranger

Crisler Arena

En fuego! Masterfully executed, funky, slinky, and ultimately ripped to shreds.

Mexicali Blues
July 27, 1974
Civic Center

Another FAST ’74 version, it’s executed with so much swagger you’d swear they could go faster still.

This is colossal, a treat for my fellow space sickos.

Immediately had to upvote this, one of the best versions I’ve heard. KEITH.
Loser

Best-of-’72 candidate.
Estimated Prophet
Dec. 30, 1989
Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum Arena

The regular cast is great on this, but I like the fills Airto adds too.
