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.

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.

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."

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.

Stark raving good time here.

Often a skipper for me but coming out of "Eyes" it has some real juice to it.

The jam at the end is incredible.
