Very nice '83-version coming out of Space, which features an interesting jam into Playin' reprise. Bonus track on DaP 39.

Okay, so it's El Paso, but it sounds like Keith enjoyed the Big Sky 'cause this dude is ON throughout this show

Strange to not see this already on here. The boys are on (as they are throughout this legendary show). And listen to Billy!

Yup, this one shines. Sweet version. Phil-heavy.

^ Agreed. This song certainly often drags a bit. Here, it doesn’t. Great stuff from a great show.

^ Agreed. I rarely find these songs enjoyable, but they have that little extra going on here. It helps that Brent pull out some amazing synth sounds throughout this incredible show as well (e.g., Feel Like A Stranger, Space > The Wheel, Around and Around).
