Made special by the 15 minute jam that follows. This is the longest version of the song with Brent that I can find, adding to this already unique show

With Airto Moreira. "Happy Halloween" drums into a very scary space. Transitions sweetly into the last St. Stephen ever.

Terrapin Station

Shoreline Amphitheatre

One of my favorite shows from '87. The whole thing is filled with energy and power, and this is no exception.

One of the spaciest I've ever heard! Truly beautiful.

This whole show is tight and jammed out. While the playin' sandwich gets most of the attention the first set is amazing, and this is no exception!

The jam sections of Truckin' and the Other One seem to have a lot of overlap because of the modes each song is played around, so I think you're right that it really is down to how you prefer to read the setlist. However, I think either way you read it this a very special show, as if you count it as the Other One I believe that makes it the longest version of that song Brent ever played too.

P.S. - Correct me if I'm wrong about it being the longest, on a quest to find the best Brent Jams and any help is appreciated!

Not really sure what show this is meant to be on, but I wish they played Terrapin in 73 lol
