MIDI Horn fest on Jerry's end + the Vince synths make this an interesting MSWM. Carrying over the tame energy from the Eyes beforehand. Solo Vince

Stuck Inside of Mobile with the Memphis Blues Again
June 25, 1991
Sandstone Amphitheatre

Excellent dueling keyboard version - Bruce on accordion and Vince on the synths. I love the Brent versions with the B3, but the keys fit well here

Shoreline Amphitheatre

Jerry repeats "Look out Stagger Lee" with quite a bit of fervor at the end, excellent version. Entire band is locked into high gear

Victim Or The Crime
Sept. 18, 1993
Madison Square Garden

Long intro to this one - as time went on it seems that the band, especially Jerry, were beginning to grow fond of the dark space that Victim provided.
Loser
June 18, 1974
Freedom Hall

A rare post-'72 Sweet Suzy - solo ain't as bad as Bignoze says IMO. Lots of beautiful interplay as stated before. Vocals are definetely up there with best of '74
China Doll
Dec. 30, 1980
Oakland Auditorium

Excellent version with flawless outro into A&A. The only NFA>China Doll I believe
Stella Blue
Dec. 10, 1972
Winterland Arena

The outro, though cut, is one of the most solid for the period. You can tell it's going somewhere heady
Promised Land
Dec. 10, 1972
Winterland Arena

Really rockin' version to open the second set
