Not just high-energy but a little manic and dangerous. Listen for some sneaky fills by Keith.

Brown Eyed Women

St. Paul Civic Center Arena

It’s not an exaggeration to say that this was one of the best songs in their repertoire around the time of this version.

Boston Music Hall

Shoreline Amphitheatre

Wow, where did that come from? A unique jam makes for one of the coolest NFAs of the decade.

Jerry switches to slide after several verses, followed shortly by a smoooth segue to Walkin’ Blues. Cool and different.
