Excellent bridge. The band extends and extends and never loses their way. Very heady version.

Indianapolis Sports and Music Center

I love the jam on this one. The interplay between Jerry and Brent is excellent. This is the start of a real face melt pre-drums.

Providence Civic Center

Great '84 jammin'. Jer stays on the edge of the tracks almost dropping off and the jam goes on and on.

Uncle John's Band

Greek Theatre - University of California

I love how Jer starts this one out (mistankingly?) like a reprise version coming out of Playin'. Great tight 80s jams here, well played by the boys.
Shakedown Street

Providence Civic Center

Phil is on it for this Shakedown and in a creative mood. The jam is super tight.
Wharf Rat

Philadelphia Civic Center

1st show and this space>Wharf Rat is where I go it. I could have gone for many more Rats out of space.
Help On The Way > Slipknot > Franklin's Tower
April 21, 1984
Philadelphia Civic Center

April was hot for HSF. The Slipknot here rolls into multiple creative themes without rush. Real hot jams and a good Franklins.
I Need A Miracle

Philadelphia Civic Center

This was one of those nights that the band cared about each note.
