An excellent shreddy version from '87. Jerry really lets loose.

Worth a listen, Jerry noodles around with Cumberland Blues before > to drums.

Chill version with a really cool dark Dear "Prudence-ish" jam into drums.

The show is just ok, but this Jerry solo out of Space into The Wheel is certainly worth checking out.

Highly enjoyable with a nice tempo and great energy. Some will be surprised by how good this version is.

I'll need to give this one a few more listens I think. I found it to be quite boring. Not as good as the PITB that was played in Vancouver a few days prior.

Love Jerry's tone in this version. Sooo smooth.
Greatest Story Ever Told

Memorial Coliseum

Great scorching version! Nice mid 2nd set energy build combo with Bertha and played after a superb Stella Blue. Nice little discovery due to the Pacific Northwest boxset.

The jam on this version is really excellent. I'd call this a hidden gem. This whole show smokes.

The jam between Scarlet and FOTM is very unique, makes this version a must hear.
