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.

Henry J. Kaiser Convention Center

Bobby high in the mix; great guitar-Brent interplay

Bird Song
Oct. 8, 1984
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

The jam charges into dark, weird territory

Jerry is wide awake in this jam. The way he starts it is exceptional.

The space into So What is great. The one after drums is even better. Jerry and Bobby get into something.
