Love 1990-91 "The Wheel"'s. They played it at a tempo similar to the original studio version. More urgency and intensity to it.

Barnburner, scorcher, etc. There isn't a bad Bruce-era "Jack Straw."

A very strong version. Bruce and Jerry seemed to always play off each other well on "Sugaree."

Rosemont Horizon

Killer version from a Top 5 show from 1994. Vince and Jerry are on and Bob means every word.

This is an awesome version. Second one after Brent's death. Deeply felt with pinpoint emotion. Great version.

16 minute version with a Dark Star-esque post jam.

Vince actually sounds a bit like early Brent in the vocals.
