Jerry is on point in the first set. Excellent version with mournful vocals, crisp effected guitars, and strong Vince. Recommended!

Beautiful! The pain is there, but Jerry is lucid and feeling it. Flows nicely into Throwing Stones

Excellent mid-80s version. Jerry is very lucid in this show, heartfelt and floaty version.

Love this version. Not jammed out, but incredibly delivered and fun.

very well performed. Re-master on the RFK boxset is sublime. Someone is triggering dramatic thunderstorm sound effects around the 7:00 mark.

starts off a little too "Moby Dick" bombast for my taste, but by minute seven we get into a delicious vaporwave gamelan zone that is highly pleasing

Eyes > Fire is filthy. Centerpiece of a great set.

Very heady mid-80s zone. Goes through many distinct improv portions. 20+ minute take of PITB.

Think that it's kind of criminal that this one isn't here already - this is among the most unique versions of Terrapin they played.

yes!! kermit-y Jerry vocals, but killer improv
