Feel Like A Stranger

Henry J Kaiser Convention Center

Busting out of the gate in the first show of the year. Great interaction between Bobby and Phil, tasteful commentary by Jerry.

When I Paint My Masterpiece
Oct. 14, 1988
Miami Arena

Great version because Bobby is understated, even weary. This gives Jerry the space to jump into the choruses with emotion. Dodging lions.

Civic Center

Remarkable solo, down to the last note.

Henry J. Kaiser Auditorium

Notable because of what Bobby and Jerry play at the end of the jam. Fast forward to it if you need to.

Big River
Dec. 27, 1987
Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum Arena

Great version. Jerry plays angry, always a good sign. Check out his first solo. Also, Brent's mumbly jumbly solo is not too bad here.

Greek Theatre, U. Of California

Jerry kills the middle solo and the interplay between him and Weir at the end is fantastic
Mexicali Blues
April 12, 1982
Nassau Coliseum

Brilliant contortions in the solo.
Playin' In The Band

The Spectrum

The jam after Ship of Fools will make you go wait a minute, and replay it from the beginning.
New Minglewood Blues
Feb. 19, 1982
Golden Hall, Community Concourse

I love it when Jerry plays angry. Check out the power chords. The Rango aud is incredible sounding.

Warfield Theater

Jerry sounds great in the first solo but this is all about Bobby's playing in the outro jam. Fuckin sick.
