Another song I look at as set filler, but this one really cooks. Bruce is excellent here.

Your usual hot 1990s' "Deal."

Charlotte Coliseum

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.
Big River

Miami Arena

This is indeed an extremely good "Big River." Bobby's vocals are spectacular.
Althea
March 9, 1981
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.
