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

Stagger Lee

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

The Other One
May 13, 1973
Iowa State Fairgrounds

Phil OWNS this one. The intro is stuck in my head - probably a top 5 Other One for 73-74
Aiko Aiko
June 20, 1987
Greek Theater

Ripping version, showcasing Jerry's comeback (especially vocally)
Dark Star
Feb. 21, 1969
Dream Bowl

Really great, like drifting on a raft in the middle of the Pacific Ocean. Highlight of this show is the intense Eleven however
Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain
Feb. 26, 1990
Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum Arena

Prelude S>F to the famous one from Hamilton next month. Phil is all over this one, but the entire band is truly locked in. Not super intense but highly experimental, both in MIDI and just playing
Foolish Heart
Sept. 12, 1991
Madison Square Garden

Really excellent Foolish on Jerry's end, scorching guitar work. The two keyboards meld well on thus one
