Fast but very neat and tight. Cool version from the best run of 1986.

Motherfucker out of "Cold Rain & Snow." Shit hot and rockin'. A bit sloppy but full of energy.

Sam Boyd Silver Bowl

Vince is admittedly awful here, but Phil and Jer make up for it. Cool version.

Big Railroad Blues

Henry J. Kaiser Convention Center

Not a great show, Jerry still finding strength after the coma. This BRB, however, smokes.

Always the little song that could in any set it appeared in. This one rocks.

Blow Away
Aug. 27, 1972
Old Renaissance Faire Grounds

This has nothing on the "Samba in the Rain" from Cornell.
Dark Star
May 30, 1969
Springer's Inn

Never thought there would be a "Dark Star" not added yet.
One More Saturday Night
March 28, 1981
Grugahalle

Mark my words: this is the best post-1972 "OMNS." The riffs are on target, the vocals are great. Excellent version.
Good Lovin'

Merriweather Post Pavilion

Yea, this one is outstanding. Great solo from Jerry, too.
Walking Blues

Merriweather Post Pavilion

All of Bobby's mid-1980s' blues songs started off slow and raunchy then got faster and more laid back and generic.
