Take Me To The River

Pyramid Arena

Epic bust out in Memphis, the home of Al Green. Sorry, Talking Heads did not write the song. Firm believer this was the best run in 1995.

Fillmore East (Late Show)

Another great acoustic version from 1970. Alot of heady stuff from these shows.

Its kind of a chill slowed version. Doesn't make it any less heady, though. Just different.

Cleveland Music Hall

Great version as above. Clocks in over 16 minutes and not rushed one bit.
Throwing Stones
Dec. 28, 1991
Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum Stadium

Awesome stuff this night. I have said over and over again that this show does not get the cred it deserves.

Oakland Coliseum Arena

Some may say this is the best show from 1992.
Shakedown Street
Dec. 16, 1992
Oakland Coliseum Arena

One of the best from the 90's. Bobby plays some serious power chords.
Morning Dew
March 27, 1994
Nassau Coliseum

I remember taking the Long Island Railroad back to the city after the show and everyone was exhausted and just reflecting on the Dew. It was a religious experience for me that occurred only a few times in the 50 shows I caught. I really could not believe what I just heard especially for 1994.
