I'm just glad I never broke Brent's heart. Anyway, great vocals, solos, and overall performance on this excellent Healy matrix. "Ah, what the hell!"

Very fine post-Brent-era version with Bruce helping out on piano. The closing jam sounds like a segue into TOO, but leads into D/S.

Sandwiches Lovelight, but funky jamming in the outro. Bop bop

Like 6/22/93 Deer Creek, this well-sung and -performed version is a nice capper to a strong evening.

Vince teases Stagger Lee starting at 4:00 and continuing through Jerry's MIDI solo. A nice variation - has the band done this before?

Hard to Handle

Davis Gym, Bucknell University

Bobby ripping it up from 3:00-4:30! I thought his playing in China Cat was good, but he nails this one down with a nine-pound hammer. Of course, Jerry is not about to be outplayed by baby Bob. The whole band sounds great. This one will keep you chooglin'! :-D

I dig the blues riff from Jerry right after the 7 min mark, which Bruce and Vince pick up on right away. Great, fun version!

nice segues in from Sugar Magnolia and out to NFA, in addition to the killer playing in this version. The Betty board sounds great, as usual!

Date is actually 3/23/92 - Any way to correct this?

I love Jerry's vocal in addition to the extra jams on the tail of this version
