Lovely version from an underrated show. Nice harmonies from Brent especially and Jerry's solos sparkle.

How is this not here? Smooth, emotive version with a soaring solo from Jerry. Bruce buttresses it beautifully. Top version.

How this one only has six I will never know. Top 3 version along with 6/22/91 and 12/28/91.

Band did right by Memphis these two nights.

A great show is a great show regardless of the era and this is a GREAT show in 1993. Very strong "FOTD," much peppier than usual with Jerry making up for his ragged voice with choice guitar work and Vince is on here.
They Love Each Other

This version deserves some love. The acoustic tone is perfect for this seductive, playful song, giving it that slinky sound it thrives on. Maybe the best I've heard post-1991.

HOLY SHIT, this version is incredible. Jerry fucking throttles the outro. Just pure power and emotion.
