Stuck Inside of Mobile with the Memphis Blues Again
Sept. 19, 1990
Madison Square Garden

A pounding, emotional version delivered with the inspiration that runs throughout the MSG ’90 run

Brokedown Palace
May 9, 1981
Nassau Coliseum

One of a few comical, double-start versions, this one comes around to cap off a great evening, sending us aglow into the parking lot

Aiko Aiko
April 3, 1986
Hartford Civic Center

Punchy and well explored to open the gig; beefy and well mixed soundboard to boot
2
Hell in a Bucket
June 5, 1993
Giants Stadium

Charging, gnarly version to open the proceedings before the dish-off off to a soaring Sugaree

Foolish Heart
Sept. 19, 1988
Madison Square Garden

Enjoy the free wanderings of these earlier versions before the “hook” closed the jam segment.

Agree with the previous comment... and am inclined to place 5/7 in b/t

Stanley Theatre

Right on
Eyes Of The World

Pickled.
Estimated Prophet

Campus Stadium - University Of California

Came to write how this jam wrecked a few guardrails at the exit ramp with its abrupt high-speed departure... then saw the above comment. Analogous analogies. Nobody got hurt, but this version deserves more votes.
Truckin'
July 9, 1989
Giants Stadium

Yup, we hope the fun is pursued and explored by some or all of them, as these adventures in other shows at this point lead to unique jams rather than taking the collective kneel. Get in the groove... see for example Saint 11/2/79
