This a JGB version. This one always gets me emotional. One of the best R&Cs ever performed. Jerry’s voice!

Great version. Love Jerry’s MIDI effects on this, and Bruce and Vince kill it. Great video of the show from Shakedown Stream.

Dancin' in the Streets

This Dancin’ is incredible. The extended vocal jam before the monster jam is great. The jam is where it’s at though. Jerry is possessed and goes crazy with the solo. The rest of the band is great too. Phil and Keith know what’s up! Listen to the Dire Wolf after this too. Hell, listen to the whole show!!

Really wish they’d play this one more. A Brent version would be top shelf! This version is great. The horn intro sounds like the album version!

Listening to this as I write this comment. The intro the freaking me out in the best way possible. Nice one Healy!

Really really love this version. The jam from Drums that goes into it is fun, and Jerry’s vocals are great for ‘86. The jamming on this is amazing, and someone from Neville Brothers(don’t know who it is) takes a few verses in the middle. Great version!
