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.

One of my favorite versions. Tight musically and great vocals by all. Oh yeah and Brent was a monster on keys that summer tour.

Release it! This Bird Song here is a beaut. I love the Dancin'>Bird Song opening sequence. Now, that there is the way you open up a show when you mean business, which they did.. Excellent stuff.

Sweet indeed. Jerry always seemed to have it for this song in any era.

Voc's and playing all in the proper syncopation. This was the song that made me realize this show was special.
