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.

Sugar Magnolia
March 23, 1981
Rainbow Theatre

Out of "Stella" comes a thrashy, supercharged, cocaine infused "Sugar Magnolia" that's just delightful.

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

Deal
May 8, 1977
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."
The Music Never Stopped
March 20, 1991
Capital Centre

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.
Loose Lucy
June 17, 1991
Giants Stadium

Stark raving good time here.
Walking Blues
June 17, 1991
Giants Stadium

Often a skipper for me but coming out of "Eyes" it has some real juice to it.
Uncle John's Band
June 17, 1991
Giants Stadium

The jam at the end is incredible.
