Seattle Center Coliseum

In a song that is typically a highlight reel, this version is no different. Beautiful jam

Bobby throws some excellent chaw on the vocals. My go-to for an underrated song

Brown Eyed Women

Giants Stadium

Bruce on this - my GOD! Hard to follow Jerry's killer solo, but Bruce practically lights the keys on fire. So, so good. Phil with great thumping groundwork
China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider
June 16, 1991
Giants Stadium

Agree wholly with initial post. Both China and Rider each seem to have a bit extra room and extension. Bruce opened these kinds of doors for the band in that era to confidently explore. Liking this version a ton
Saint of Circumstance
June 17, 1991
Giants Stadium

^what the clash said. This version is made by the 2-3 min of seeming drums/space the precedes it. That little jam segment is spacey gold and transitioning into Saint is pretty shocking.

Cracking solid from everyone, with Hornsby laying some thickness
Candyman

Giants Stadium

Jerry’s ethereal, tinkling tone on this solo is definitive catharsis.
