IMHO , better than 10/9/89.

As of 8/93, Jerry began using the new "Lightning Bolt" guitar as his main axe. It had a piezo pickup in the fretboard position,and that provided quite an "acoustic" type sound. Its great on some tunes, not-so- much on others. Also, his distortion sounded thinner from then on.

This is BEGGING for up-voting! Deserves to be in top 3. Could possibly go head-to-head with Alpine '89 version. Great dynamics here. Burnin' jam!

One of last shows I saw, and GDTS gave me FRONT ROW tix! This turned out to be one of the better summer '95 shows. "Rain" song theme was a bit overkill. This "Birdsong" was excellent. Jerry plays some sweet midi stuff.

IMHO, better than the "Without a Net" version. They create a gorgeous tapestry of psychedelia.
