This is a real nice version of Baby Blue to close this '84 show. Super yummy Dylan cover.

"Come to Daddy on an inside straight!" Jerry belts it out nicely on this one. Good version!

I'm listening to this one in headphones right now & it's super cool. Dead were ahead of their time with experimental, ambient, electronica.

This one's got a nice pop to it. Brents key just breathe fire on this one, too.

Good version. Like Brents keys here. Is there ever a bad Brokedown? If so, it's definitely not this one.
