China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider

MSG

Classic China-Rider from a great run. 9/18/87 is legendary, but this show, and a lot of the shows from this tour, just as fantastic.

In any other month in any other year, this entire show would be considered a rip-roaring classic (which it is!!). Donna is awesome.

Raw, ragged, savage, pretty darn profound. Almost a Close Encounter out of Space... Always a gorgeous work in progress... Not the best, but....

The Dead prevail! is probably how I should say it, though, since I don’t even know if it’s a technical failure….. could have been a failure of Jerry’s brain, forgetting the words after 3 years! Either way, this is a rare, fun beast of a return!

Jammiest CJ ever! When mics fail, Jerry will prevail!! (See 2/5/78 Samson, etc….)
