Wonderful Greatest Story with EVERYONE on. Comes out of a hot Alabama. The mix shines everyone through well, and is a classic early Brent version

Very nice early Fadeaway, the first highlight of this show for me so far. Very uneven energy in this first but this Fadeaway rocks!

Wow...totally overlooked. Literally the second vote smh. I know people have varied opinions on Jerry's MIDI experiments in the late 80's to 90's but the horn sound in the start just really gets me going here. The ultramatrix is UNBELIEVABLY good - one of the best recordings you can find. Band is in TOP shape despite the shaky start to Half-Step

"well WHAT THE FUCK" - Bobby "That's what happens when you play too loud" - Jerry, grinning ear to ear probably
