Century II Convention Hall

Another charged version from this great year. Bob really starts the charge at the end of the China Cat, but then Jerry finishes up the transition.

Oh yeah...the transition from china doll>UJB is spot on.
Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain

Hidden gem here. This could be top 20 if anyone listened to this obscure show.

"Spanish lady come to me." Love this Spanish O1.
Standing On The Moon
April 1, 1995
Pyramid Arena

Yes, the voice isn't perfect, but what does it for me...he reprises "be with u" not once but twice and maybe the ragged voice even add to it. Also, the final jam with reprises is quite long. Jer is great in the jam, but Bob adds some serious power riffs that really drive this version home, too.
Foolish Heart
April 1, 1995
Pyramid Arena

Beast almost 14 minute Foolish. This was best run of 1995.
