    Every Friday we'll be sending you off with a Jam Of The Week, hand-picked and delivered by tape archivist David Lemieux. Listen to it on the weekend. Listen to it at work. Listen to it all day long...but make sure you tune in or you'll miss out because these little nuggets will stream for ONE WEEK ONLY!

    Yes a Cumberland! Was in my notes but somehow missed it on the posting. Jerry was smokin' on Truckin' which really got my attention and the Cumberland was a fantastic group effort with everyone doing some unique stuff for that song. Almost didn't give a listen as I was saying meh, late 80's, but '89-'90 is always worth checking out I had to remind myself. Did not care for the '88 in the Taper's this week though.
    Cheers

    it has a Cumberland too!!

    Crazy Fingers > Cumberland > Eyes

    thanks 1stShow for getting me to take a closer look at this show - it's smoking!! This is the first show after the Downhill From Here run at Alpine. I'm sure Oro has talked about it but I have a hard time keeping up with his speed run listens :)

    Got more to say later.

Looking at Set II pre-drumz set list you posted had me going to full show to see complete "what's up" and that's what I did in this case. Dropped in on Built To Last in 1st set (more on that choice later) through Baby Blue encore. High energy fun!
