Novelty of being done at MSG aside, this is a great version. Jerry reals get after it in the last minute or so.

Really happy I get to submit this awesome version. Jerry is brilliant on it, his fills and his solos come right out of 1974.

Excellent version. Jerry's crisp and alert. Can hang in most eras.

One of the best versions of the slow arrangements I've ever heard. Played with strength and power by all.
Big River

Madison Square Garden

Show deserves a big listen as we draw closer to the release of the new box set. This is a magnificent early 1980s' show where literally every song cooks. This "Big River" is crazy good. Lightning fast riffs from Jerry, the dam really breaks on this one.

Miami Arena

This is indeed an extremely good "Big River." Bobby's vocals are spectacular.
Althea

Madison Square Garden

This version is currently streaming in the new mix from the MSG box set that is coming out soon. It sounds fantastic. Jerry's lead lines are beautiful and his vocals are full of charisma. Easily one of the best "Althea"'s of all time.
