2 Drummer breakbeat attack with Phil throwing down the rope a dope and Jer firing darts - this one's lively.

The Spectrum

Admittedly not a favorite tune for me but this is super crispy - laconic delivery by Weir w/ Jer's picking and tone perfection. Whole show is massive.

Philadelphia Civic Center

The whammer jammer One - Two punch of Stranger >CRS check the Miller Board with phones and listen to Jerry blow bubbles thru Stranger (perfectly) and then crush out one of the best CRS's of the 80's. Long long long loooong crazy night.
The Other One

Carousel Ballroom

Yeah man so very grimy in the best way - short and to the point. I love Jer doin like some crunchy windup work from the 1 min mark to the 1st verse... and the organ kicks in very haunted housey....cool stuff - whole show is killer.
