Kind of a humorous version makes it worth a listen. Includes lots of animal noises

Not bad! The mid song jam is very nice.

Splendid version, Jerry takes his time with the solo to make sure every note is perfect.

A rare UJB > PITB > UJB sandwich. Not the most extended jam ever but the segues are slick.

Jerry's blast off at the end and the silky smooth transition to China Doll makes this one special.

The Truckin > TOO > Drums > Space> IWTYH > TOO features some great jamming. I feel like this one is flying under the radar.
Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain

The Spectrum

I found this version quite fun and unique. The MIDI jams in Scarlet blast you way back to that 80's sound. The Brent, Jerry, and Phil interplay during the FOTM intro is fantastic. Jerry has the scratchy 80's voice but he's engaged. There were certainly harvesting the energy of the Loma Prieta earthquake on this night.

This show get lost in the shadows of 10/16, it's a worthy listen and this Estimated shows why.

Jerry's voice is shaky but his playing is real nice.
