A great one from summer '90. Vocals are crisp, musically the organ work is great and the band is tight and all in the flow.

Jerry solo for most of it with some effects from time to time. Unique. And then it goes into Dew

This song is not really in a "heady" format, but I always liked it as a 1st set tune. This version is well.played as is this show.

Yes 1984. I love the ups that happen in this year. This version has a lot of great energy from the boys. Mid-song solo is very strong.

Band is on point. This was a great sequence of songs. The jamming is strap in and go. WRS was the catalyst to some of the most epic band improv ever played.

Yupp. This one is great. In a 1st set where they could do no wrong . Slow or fast everything worked.

This Alpine box set is going to be great isn't it? Tight version with everyone listening to each other. Lots of great energy.

Where's the love people? This 420 show is sold one. Like most '84s it's a bit rough here and there but overall very good.

Great energetic creative versions of both songs. Jerry demonstrates some of his more intricate finger work in Fire and not just his amazing creativity.
