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!

Edmundson Pavilion

Very cleanly executed SoF, where, besides Jerry's vocals, Keith stands out

Portland Memorial Coliseum

This NFA is part of one of the greatest segments of music GD ever did and I find it, ridiculous as it may sound, much more enjoyable than the 'hard rocking' versions as epitomized in the one from Englishtown.

Beautiful - might be my favorite as well.

Carrion_Crow nails the description of this one. Wonderful WRS.

Portland Memorial Coliseum

The ones above this might be more rocking, but this GSET is quite tasty due to Keith's piano work
