Bruce's accordion really makes this one shine, and I'm not even a fan of it. Make of it what you will. + Phil bombs galore

Smokestack Lightnin'
July 30, 1988
Laguna Seca Recreation Area

Rare standalone Smokestack reeling out of Space, sweet playing to boot

Touch of Grey

Silva Hall

Solid 1st set closing Touch - Brent's keys add to the shine

Truckin'
Dec. 30, 1983
Civic Auditorium

On the heels of a sweet MLB jam - Bobby blows some lyrics but the playing is where it's at - dissolves into a nice Wharf Rat

Henry J Kaiser Convention Center

Rare late era post-Space He's Gone - Phil bombs abound on this one

Saint of Circumstance
April 5, 1991
The Omni

Wow really out there soaring Saint of Circumstance. The jam almost sounds like the one in Cassidy. Ultramatrix is great but I personally like the Oade AUD
China Doll
Nov. 2, 1985
Richmond Coliseum

Fine little Playin' jam at the very end - check out the Oade AUD
Wharf Rat
Sept. 18, 1988
Madison Square Garden

Where is the love for this show?? I know it's better on paper but it's not played poorly - average at worst. Fun show with a heartfelt wharf rat
Ramble On Rose
Oct. 28, 1985
Fox Theater

Jerry kicks rose into top gear. Excellent 80's version
Comes A Time
June 25, 1991
Sandstone Amphitheatre

Dreamy - floats along after two minutes of beautiful space teasing Comes a Time. Summer '91 hardly disappoints!
