Just a lovely version. Beautiful little mid solo and lovely synths and harmonies from Vince. These spring 94 shows are almost universally underrated.

Nicely jammed into from He's Gone, awesome Bobby, Jerry and Brent scat on the outro and high energy

HEADY outro jam with all members contributing. Great barroom keys from Vince and some speedy playing from Jer. Basically unknown show, great 1st set!

Vince definitely added a lot in second sets by late 93. Great, ambient, jazzy tones here.

Nice strumming jam to cap this version off. I'd be willing to bet every bird song from 1989 is great.

Highly underrated. Intense shredding here folks

Great version, and very pretty solos, but not transcendent, and definitely shouldn't be ranked so high. There are several hotter versions from 1990 alone - 9/18 (outro!) and 12/28 (mid solo!) come to mind.

Jerry reaches in the outro. Great vocals.
