Kicks off this epic set 2. Great version, Jerry's torching it.

This whole show fucks. Even the IMHBTR. Band was a gang of poised killers this evening.

Searing work from both Jerry and Bobby.

Nice 14 minute version that gets pretty far out there.

A crushing technical error keeps this from being one of the best "Dew"'s of the 1980s'.

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

Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum Stadium

One of the best versions of the slow arrangements I've ever heard. Played with strength and power by all.
Big River
Sept. 21, 1982
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.
