Hey Pocky Way
Great version with plenty of Jerry/ Brent goodness (not a fan of the song? This one may change that)

Bird Song
Loose, vocals could be better, but the playing is very good. Jerry's voice was showing strain at this point. Not a 70s version, but I love the jams.

Cumberland Blues
Directly after the "Maggie's" from Postcards of the Hanging...this version is near perfect!!!
4
Throwing Stones
'87 is full of tight versions, but this is about as rock solid as they come. Roaring climax!

West L.A. Fadeaway
Brent is just stellar accompniament and Jerry is killing it. Seek out the Charlie Miller version as per usual. This is one hot West LA.

Terrapin Station
One of my favorite shows from '87. The whole thing is filled with energy and power, and this is no exception.
