Hornsby always makes Jerry play better. Here's the AUD I've been loving: https://archive.org/details/gd1991-06-14.sennME80.wklitz.94371.flac16

Short (and an AUD patch), but kicks off a wonderful sequence.

Childhood's End
Aug. 1, 1994
The Palace

I'm sorry this song never really gained traction in the band's repertoire. Outside of the practical benefit of encouraging Phil to write more songs and help carry some of the weight in these last years, it's really not a bad song. Many of the lyrics rely on the same kaleidoscope of images present throughout the band's music (both original and covers), and Phil's a decent singer.
They Love Each Other

Oakland Auditorium

The performance is at best a B-, but there are some great shots of Jerry in the video (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=enFUFjzrkWo).

This is the best I've heard. Fantastic version that simply struts.

We've all heard dozens of these, but I think this one is worth a listen.
