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.

U.S. Blues (Wave That Flag)

The Boston Blues comes after the best jam ever I agree, this one comes after the most intense jam ever. The transition is seamless

Heartfelt Set 1 version. Killer combo.

This is a great and a most powerful Dew. Phil drops throughout reminiscent of Freedom '74. The band was all fired up and firing on all cylinders this night.

Heck no. This one deserves to be much higher. And possibly definitive.
