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.

Real nice stabbing, jazzy organ work by Brent about 5 min into this one, and he keeps piling on inspired flurries...I actually didn't mind the patch so much either.

This version, like the whole show, just gets better and better with each listen!

Gorgeous and mellow. That liquidy Jerry guitar melts me.
