The Worcester crowd is really into it. Another hot version. Aren't they almost always hot?

Jerry singing Big Boss Man to open the show - and nobody has mentioned this yet?

This era is overlooked and underappreciated. This - like most around this time - cooks.

Love the restraint Jerry plays with during the second instrumental break. Very measured and disciplined.

Bob's rap starts off with an indirect mention of Pigpen.

Yeah, it's the best out there. If you have to find faults, it is kinda rough sounding and Jerry has that whiny singing voice. Still, it's the best.

Oakland Auditorium

Brent explodes during the first instrumental break, then Jerry takes the lead. After some solid vocals, Jerry jams it out tight. Not just a throwaway version.
Wang Dang Doodle
Dec. 30, 1991
Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum

Nice instrumental break jamming from Jerry and Vice. Great vocals by Bob and some nice harmonies. More 1991 sweetness.
Desolation Row
April 21, 1986
Berkeley Community Theater

Yeah, he flubs things a couple of times, but overall the vocals are good.
Dire Wolf

Freeborn Hall, University of California

Short but sweet instrumental break for Jerry.
