Wharf Rat
June 16, 1985
Greek Theater

Honored to be the one to submit this one even if I'm shocked it's not here. This is an outstanding version. Brent is spectacular here on all fronts.
2
Sugar Magnolia
March 23, 1981
Rainbow Theatre

Out of "Stella" comes a thrashy, supercharged, cocaine infused "Sugar Magnolia" that's just delightful.
3
The Other One
Sept. 26, 1991
Boston Garden

The Magnificent Seven lineup of 1991 strike again with this trippy little concoction. Flows beautifully into verse 2 of "Dark Star."
4
Space
Oct. 31, 1991
Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum

Ferocious beam banging. Disembodied Vader voices. Frightening, unhinged "Space." Leads perfectly back into "Dark Star."
5
Friend of the Devil
Dec. 5, 1981
Market Square Arena

Outstanding version with beautiful keyboard work from Brent. Can't believe this one hadn't been posted yet.

Comments

Throwing Stones
Sept. 22, 1993
Madison Square Garden

This version is incendiary. Good chawed vocals from Bob and Murray and Cotton add great energy.
New Minglewood Blues
Sept. 22, 1993
Madison Square Garden

This version smokes. This was one number where Vince usually killed it.
Samba In The Rain
Oct. 14, 1994
Madison Square Garden

Good version of a shit song. When 1994 was on, it was on. Too bad the lows are just as frequent and potent.
Lazy River Road
Oct. 14, 1994
Madison Square Garden

This and the Dave Murray version really made me take notice of this song. Not a particularly showy number, but very lovely. Great song.
Standing On The Moon
March 16, 1994
Rosemont Horizon

Supreme version. Best of 1994, and that was a great year for this gem.
