Lots of submissions from this show. 2 well-played sets - this is my favorite Stagger Lee, not sure exactly why it just has IT.

The freakin harmonies on this one I miss that trio singing Euro 72 style. Back when Phil could sing that high

This one gets up here for Brent's creativity during the Jam. UJB sandwich 2nd set is sweet.

The outro jam into drums is great orchestra. Real well-played version with great Brent vocs.

Phil busts in to start out the jam and it must have shook the house. Heavy '84 version.

Sports Palace

Just a great great performance of this song. The band is in full effect to end this show.

Insane. Listen then vote. Great stuff.
One More Saturday Night
March 24, 1990
Knickerbocker Arena

Solid version. Original vocs are strong . Not the first time the boys re-recorded vocals.
Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain
Sept. 12, 1981
Greek Theater

Jerry is completely dialed-in to his tone for this Fire. I feel that this may have been the sound he searched for in every Fire. The rest of the band is on as well with contributions abundant throughout. A highly recommended under the radar version.
