Jerry works very hard to put this one over the top. Check out his last solo

Hartford Civic Center

They almost never got this song right, so it's no wonder they stopped playing it. This time they did. Bobby doesn't oversing, drummers are on it.

Jerry and Bobby Space, uncharacteristically grounded and coherent, leading into the best St. Stephen of the '83 revival

Franklin's Tower

Red Rocks Amphitheatre

Great version at the end of an amazing 2nd set sequence. Love what Bobby plays at the end, and Jerry throughout.
Wharf Rat

Red Rocks Amphitheatre

The intro has a Dark Star vibe. Great version.
U.S. Blues (Wave That Flag)

Red Rocks Amphitheatre

Fantastic, raucous version. Great solo. Great slide playing by Bobby (you heard me right).
Estimated Prophet

Omaha Civic Auditorium

Heavy, intense version. Listen to Phil as well as Jerry in the jam.

St. Paul Civic Center Arena

Jerry gives it all in the solo. Had to listen to it twice. Even the parts that don't sound good sound great when you listen again.
