Thoughtful, almost 11 minute version. Greasing it up before the monster versions of 77. Excllent nonetheless.

Smoked out of space. Some fanning for good measure, too.

Keeps the fun going after Touch. Killer version of Brent's best tune.

They kill the Touch to open the second set of this killer show. Lyrics nailed with summer tour energy.

Soldier Field

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

The Spectrum

This thing is no joke!
Terrapin Station

The Spectrum

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.

Chrisler Arena

This is absolutely torched by everyone.
Playin' In The Band

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.
