Played very well, but they struggle with the vocals.

Dig that lonesome prarie boogie. Fast, focused, tight.

They played the hell out of this tune in '82. Another high octane, supercharged version.

Phil puts up a nice low growl.

Friend of the Devil
Oct. 30, 1991
Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum

Underrated run of shows. 1991 had a lot of highlights and these 4 shows from Oakland are all very good.

Guys - you forgot to fit Sunshine Daydream in somewhere. As the instrumental break post vocals starts, Bruce sits back and lets Jerry take the lead and after a while, he jumps and and has some fun.
U.S. Blues (Wave That Flag)
April 9, 1987
UIC Pavilion

Jerry nails the instrumental break. A rollicking good version.
The Mighty Quinn (Quinn The Eskimo)
March 19, 1986
Hampton Coliseum

For a non-jam encore, there is a short, but sweet instrumental break.
Smokestack Lightnin'

Richfield Coliseum

Having similar melodies, it almost sounds like they're going going to play New Speedway Boogie. It's got that great intensity, focus and execution like so many great tunes played in 1991.
