Ship of Fools
Subtle, sublime, and filled with soul. Powerful, loud and strong at the right moments, and quiet like a leaf falling in the moments inbetween.

Jack Straw
A rip roaring scorcher just buids and builds Jerry and Brent just keep taking it higher and higher playing off each other brilliantly

Lost Sailor -> Saint of Circumstance
An absolutely magical pairing, this is a tremendous coupling.

They Love Each Other
Gorgeous T.L.E.O. this is a fantastic version, one of the best Brent era versions.

Cold Rain and Snow
Killer version during 3 cold great nights in Chicago. Jerry does some turbo plucking towards the end. Very solid SBD

Deal
Incredible stuff here. ‘81 was a fantastic year for this song, and this version is no exception. This rocks
