All Along the Watchtower
March 31, 1988
Meadowlands Arena

Starts out with a slow rootsy intro and Bob throwin out a Wait a minute! Then Jer shows up with the machine gun. Short and different.

Dreamy, soft Brent tones accent Jer's warm vocal work and delicate picking.

7 Lousy votes for what is arguably some of the most worthy hard jammed acid rock from your favorite band. Get back to the roots, run for the hills, Katie bar the door and try to put this fire out and good fucking luck. KILLER I repeat killer That's it for the Other One. The CE reprise in particular is basically the sounds of a Red Dwarf changing to Blue.
China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider

Oklahoma City Music Hall

Lots of ideas abound here and yes agree they stretch it out nicely - Jer's licks are exploring the outer edges of each song and Phil detonates in the Rider.
New Minglewood Blues

Mississippi River Festival

Fiery and spanking nasty take. Recording captures the band/crowd energy really well too. The sight, sound and smells of this show are all right here. .

Yowzer - I had to go back and listen again. Whew boy that last solo is a wonderfully emotional, melodic trip that hits all the right notes for me.

Laced up '84 action with tasteful effects don't miss the Space into it...hmmmmm indeed this one has that certain SOMETHING.
