It won't make you a Candyman fan, but if you dig that already, you will like this.

Phil and Vince lead the way. The rest of the band sounds like they took the day off.

Short one, only 4:37, but what's there is crisp and well-played.

Love Bob tossing in that "Just like wine" line.
The Other One

More than a minute into it, after Phil gives The Other One call, Jerry and Brent still mess around with Spanish Jam a little more. Very cool grouping to listen to. They follow this up with Morning Dew -> Sugar Mag.

I had listened to 4 of them in a row from '91 and knew one of them was without him - I just didn't remember the right show!
Monkey and the Engineer

Fillmore Auditorium

Phil is stuck somewhere and on his way, so while they wait for him, Bob and Jerry play a few acoustic tunes. It sounds like they had been rehearsing this, because they are too on it to just be fooling around with something.
