Jerry sinks his teeth into this jam. A wonder to behold.

Arguably the version in which Bobby forgot the fewest lyrics. Also great, imaginative playing by Jerry throughout.

Civic Center

From the cold depths of 1985 comes a truly great MSWS. Drums are tight, Phil and Bobby sound great, and Jerry repeatedly comes up with gold.

Bobby high in the mix; great guitar-Brent interplay

Bird Song

The Centrum

Bird Songs started to get longer around this time and that's not a bad thing. Listen to what Bobby plays starting at 7:32

Incredible touch and feeling in Jerry's solo.

Jerry forgets more words than he remembers but as often happens in such cases the solos are burning - especially the second one over the verses and the second one in the coda.
They Love Each Other
April 8, 1982
Onondaga Auditorium

Jerry's solo really sneaks up on you. Listen to the crowd lose it with the way he starts the last chorus.
Brown Eyed Women

Golden Hall, Community Concourse

Great solo. You know Jerry's feeling it when he plays an extra chorus
They Love Each Other
Dec. 27, 1983
Civic Auditorium

Great example of what makes Phil such a genius
