Another great 1993 version to go with 6/11, 6/21, 8/22, 9/10. Jerry goes nutso.

Another song that roared back to life in 1991. Bobby always nails this one.

The "Aiko" is here but not the "Woman Are Smarter"? Blasphemy.

Richfield Coliseum
A very spunky, sharp and well played version with Jerry on fire. He owns this whole first set.

Charlotte Coliseum
Excellent version. Jerry's crisp and alert. Can hang in most eras.
Friend of the Devil
July 24, 1987
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
Oct. 26, 1989
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.
