The fact that this isn't already on here continues to attest to how underheard these London shows are. Smoldering version.

Can't go wrong with this one or 4/13/84 today. They are both phenomenal!

Nice, airy Shakedown

Kingswood Music Theater

Teeters on the edge of being too fast for me, but its one of the more rhythmically unique versions I've ever heard. This thing DRIVES...hard.

I'm going to check this whole show out soon, bcarter. Holy Moses, the setlist is stacked!

I will continue to bang the talking drum for this incredible version. 4/20/84 gets well-deserved accolades but I like this one just as much. I would also encourage fans of these versions to check out 4/26/84, which is currently (and criminally) sitting in single digits but is in a similar vein with another terrific transition jam.
