Riverport Amphitheatre

Surprisingly good. Nice rave-up at the end, and Jerry's fills throughout are genuinely great.

Spacey, atonal version. Shows where they were headed in 95 - a lot of interesting sounds.

Oh Babe It Ain't No Lie

Marin County Veterans Auditorium

Cool version that Jerry starts and the band jumps on while Bob works out some gear issues. Last one ever, first in years, and only electric version.

Very powerful vocals from Jerry. Beyond intense "I guess it doesn't matter anyway"

Last version. Not perfect, but especially soulful. There's a nice new video up on youtube and jerry's very animated.

They Love Each Other
Dec. 18, 1993
Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum

Really strong version led by Vince and Jerry. Vince's real piano sound and Jerry's acoustic tone combine for a fantastic sound that really suits the song - not to mention they're both playing very well.
The Other One
March 30, 1968
Carousel Ballroom

Should have more than a couple votes. Very strong stuff, jerry on fire, pig adding nice fills, etc etc - not unique for the era but very heady.
Bird Song
June 20, 1991
Pine Knob Music Theatre

Agree with the above comments about the great full band interplay. Phil is way turned up and Vince takes a very trippy solo in the middle.
He's Gone
March 28, 1994
Nassau Coliseum

Definitely kind version and super kind pre-drums with great triple jerry combo.
The Music Never Stopped
March 28, 1994
Nassau Coliseum

Totally unbelievable version. Each note of each solo is perfectly played with laser precision, not a note out of place. Fantastic hot and long
