Fast. Fast. Fast. Cokey version seems like it's playing in fast forward. '84 is so unique and magical/dreamy sometimes.

Not a big fan of this song usually, but this one's hot. On the 4th of july, short, sweet, everybody's into it. Comin' out of The Wheel and into UJB.

Nice one, rising out of a cool Playin' and getting it's own groove on. Featured on Go to Nassau.

Tight version. Surprised it's not on here, like the rest of this sweet show (my new sleeper favorite, along with 5/13, 4/11)...dig that organ.

Wow. Big emotion, big energy. Pleasantly surprised. Kept hearing how weak this Dicks Pick was, but after Scarlet/Fire, Eyes and now this, I'm really digging this show.

Kinda love the placement of this song for some reason. It's like it shouldn't go in the middle of that jammy goodness, but it does, and it works. Almost surreal.
