Great guitar work highlights this version, Jerry is dialed in from the get-go. Great show.

Posted the wrong date before; anyway, this is a scorcher.

Don't sleep on this one - super dark and intense version.

Great version that gets really spooky towards the end. Very nice exploratory passages with Jerry, Brent and the Devils especially shining.

An utterly whacked out version. Healy's vocal effects are just plain weird.

Barton Hall - Cornell University

I've been listening to Barton through the Jerry Moore audience source, and it's like hearing it for the first time. With the crowd energy more present, you get a new appreciation to what the band was churning out that night. Great "Deal."

This show needs serious reappraisal; this a Top 3 show of 1991. Magnificent selection of songs from end to end and everyone of them rips. The "Eyes -> Foolish" is among the best of the Bruce era and the whole post-Drums is a monster.

Often a skipper for me but coming out of "Eyes" it has some real juice to it.

The jam at the end is incredible.
