Row Jimmy

UIC Pavilion

This version is good not great. It has that thing where Jerry really muffs the vocals so he kills it during the guitar solo. Jimmy's during the 80's seemed to have that occur somewhat frequently.

This version rages hard! Jerry's fingers could still fly in '85.
Bird Song

Springfield Civic Center

This is really good! Nice flow to the jam.
Terrapin Station

Hampton Coliseum

This version actually has a lot going on. The mid jam is wonderful and the pre drums jam is solid.
Bird Song

Activity Center - University of Colorado

Let's be honest here. This version sucks.
