Such a nice version, included on Dozin' at the Knick -- this is my "go-to" Masterpiece.

Nice vocals make this version stand out
Bird Song
Sept. 29, 1989
Shoreline Amphitheatre
Wow, this one needs more love. Spacey and jagged with just the right amount of MIDI weirdness. Great era for Bird Song.
Baba O'Riley > Tomorrow Never Knows
Dec. 16, 1992
Oakland Coliseum Arena
This is actually 12/17/92 - these are bonus tracks on Dick's Picks 27 (from the following night).
Not Fade Away
Dec. 17, 1992
Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum
Dick's Picks 27 bonus tracks. Love the drum sound on this release. Pumps up this NFA in the same way that it boosts Samson from Dec. 16. This song was often a throwaway in the 90s but this version is a heater.
Mexicali Blues
Oct. 11, 1983
Madison Square Garden
Just when I thought I could skip all versions of this song in perpetuity. This is blistering.
