Awesome version. Bob basically takes lead on the transition. Pretty cool playing by him. Worth a listen.

I love Deals from the 90's. They get jammed out to the max. This one is no different.

Dead base in the day, had this as a top 5 show of 1992...I think.

This thing is no joke!
Terrapin Station

I think its not as a hard hitting Terrapin, since its over 15 minutes and does have a jammed out feeling of being in the clouds. Nonetheless, unique and beautiful version.

This is absolutely torched by everyone.

Pauley Pavilion - University of California

They did this sequence, I think 4 times. This is by far the best with all of the spot-on transitions. I don't think the Playin' ever gets tiger, but it is musically perfect to the ears. I completely agree with its top 5 ranking.
