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.

Playin' In The Band
Dec. 18, 1993
Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum

Extremely firey jam - not exceptionally creative but great shred.
Uncle John's Band
June 25, 1993
RFK Stadium

Lovely mid solo with fantastic fast runs sort of reminiscent of 10/12/84. Out jam is hot too, of course.
Bird Song
Dec. 31, 1987
Oakland Coliseum Arena

Extremely hot strumming jam towards the end. Lots of 87 Bird Songs are fantastic, this one included.
Foolish Heart
April 2, 1989
Civic Arena

Fantastic version with a great Brent solo preceding some awesome interplay between him and Jerry in the outro. Underrated by miles
