Great guitar work highlights this version, Jerry is dialed in from the get-go. Great show.

Posted the wrong date before; anyway, this is a scorcher.

Don't sleep on this one - super dark and intense version.

Great version that gets really spooky towards the end. Very nice exploratory passages with Jerry, Brent and the Devils especially shining.

An utterly whacked out version. Healy's vocal effects are just plain weird.

AMAZING performance.

Boston Garden

This. This is where I GOT "Stella Blue." Amazingly, singularly emotional version.

Outstanding, spiritied, uptemp "Scarlet" coming out of a truly hot "Sugar Magnolia." If only they went into "Fire" after, that really would've been ace.

Dream Bowl

Really, really nice DS that stays close to the surface. Expert, fluid jamming throughout.

Spectacular version. Jerry's vocals are so crisp on this one!
