Uncle John's Band

Nassau Coliseum

Nice jammy Uncle John's sandwiched between Shakedown and Playin. I prefer the Eaton AUD over the SBD as of 2/13/23.

Uptown Theater

Really great, lovely extended intro thx to Jerry. Everyone is on point and is a nice transition from the beautiful Comes a Time that preceeded it

Dire Wolf
Aug. 21, 1983
Frost Amphitheater

Despite the lack of vocals at the very beginning this is a great laid back Dire Wolf. The Frost is a nice place to space your face (~):)

The Omni

Phil's singing is really solid on this one, band doesn't stumble over each other.

Turn On Your Love Light

Henry J. Kaiser Auditorium

Valentine's Day '88 - very fitting for them to close with Lovelight. They played Lovelight at every Valentines show. Great band interplay

Eyes Of The World
Feb. 21, 1991
Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum Stadium

As the previous comment said, just a really fun show. Whole show is to die for and I can't imagine how fun it was to see a post space Eyes
Eyes Of The World

Zenith

Victim>Eyes is an underappreciated combo, executed well this night
The Music Never Stopped
Jan. 10, 1979
Nassau Coliseum

This is the first version when I truly understood why it's called The Music Never Stopped
Eyes Of The World
Sept. 21, 1991
Boston Garden

Nice Hornsby jam at the end
Playin' In The Band
March 31, 1991
Greensboro Coliseum

On the heels of a tremendous Eyes - I bet if this was included with the rest of the bonus on Dick's Picks 17 it would be *much* higher on this list
