A sweet and mellow version with some lovely Jerry fills throughout. Marty Robbins would be proud.

Mexicali Blues

Hollywood Palladium

Tight, high-energy, and a blast of a rollicking-good-time cowboy tune. Just exactly what Mexicali Blues should be.

Madison Square Garden

Only the third performance. The groovy rhythm of the early versions lets Brent's piano REALLY flourish here. Tighter than most other '82 versions.

Played a little slower than usual, but not missing an ounce of passion. Keith and Donna sound great during the outro.

Strummin' to the rhythm that the DRUMMERS made. They're pounding their kits while the rest of the band rages behind them. Keith sounds great too.

Amazing piano work by Keith - a stellar version of this tune.
Comes A Time

A PERFECT early version, and a cornerstone of the new St. Louis box.
The Other One

Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum

A FEROCIOUS version - this should have WAY more votes.

Vince's organ is really what makes this one for me. Great playing by him!
China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider

The Zenith

INCREDIBLE! This one is the cream of the crop and easily the best late-era version.
