Wave to the Wind

Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum

Good early version. I like the more complicated changes in 1992, almost seems like they were trying for an Eyes-feel.

The Other One

Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum

One of the stronger late-era versions. Split across Drums (with a third jam segment before). What's not to like?

I'm surprised this early version hasn't been mentioned. Very loose, and builds nicely to the Other One.

Eternity

Nassau Coliseum

From a pretty solid first set, this is a stand-out version of Eternity with Bruce Hornsby: worth a listen.

Deal

Giants Stadium

In the midst of a lackluster set (and show, and tour) this is a great version. Not as explosive, but well explored, with several intricate parts.

Benefits from the momentum gathered beforehand.

Good placement; several versions I saw would have been better after Drums.

Madison Square Garden

I have to agree this is one of the best versions, with a very unique country jam at the end.
Uncle John's Band
April 17, 1982
Hartford Civic Center

Picture-perfect rendition, out of a very beautiful Space and an excellent transition.
Playin' In The Band

Oakland Auditorium

There's a great moment about 11 mins in when they've kind of died down, and then just surge back, all as one.
