Drums -> Space
Sept. 29, 1993
Boston Garden

Drums has a deep ambient gamelan jam between the BAM BAM intro and beam. Space is CD-ROM-era tones and vaporwave-core

The Same Thing

Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum

I have very little patience for Bobby blues - but Jerry and Vince are very present and riffing on this cut

Very well delivered - a few mumbled F bombs

Hampton Coliseum

Drums is very drippy and boom boom. Weird effects on space / phasery, flangery stuff. Very Frippertronics-like version. Transitions into Spanish Jam

Nassau Coliseum

Super floaty version with an uplifting MIDI flute solo at approx 5:30. Lovely Vince-era rendition.

Dupree's Diamond Blues
March 26, 1990
Knickerbocker Arena

how can a rugged 69 version compare to the tightness of a spring 90 version? Different eras, different qualities to admire. 65-95 - something good to find everywhere if you're open to it.

Madison Square Garden

really high quality playing from everyone. Jerry hitting 90% of the high notes. His octaved down tone at the beginning is sublime.
