Beat it on Down The Line

Boston Garden

"Beat It" beat it after this one. Abrupt, sloppy lead-in but the song itself is tight and enthusiastic.

I was shocked not to see this one from the famous PPV solstice broadcast.

Phil's all over this one. Really urgent upbeat version.

Great opener for Vince's second show. Jerry's solos are rippin' and Bob's possessed. Nice subtle work from Vinny.

Springfield Civic Center

Surprised this ain't here. Lyrically perfect (another Clive ad lib from Bobby) and Jerry kills the transition jam.

Rosemont Horizon

Very strong and powerful version. Jerry is in great voice and the outro is magnificent.
China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider
Oct. 27, 1990
The Zenith

This version had me bouncing up and down from beginning to end. What a truly sublime take on the combo.
Eyes Of The World
July 2, 1991
Giants Stadium

The best nonexistent version.
China Doll
July 30, 1983
Ventura County Fairgrounds

Someone described this version as having every tempo all at once. It's a very good description.
Victim Or The Crime
June 11, 1991
Charlotte Coliseum

The "Victim / Eyes" combo here is hugely underrated. Out of this world jamming and mammoth versions of both songs.
