Jam chart entries
Makisupa Policeman

This version is slower than 8/29/87, with crashing percussion throughout most of the jam; it remains pretty spacey throughout. Around 6:20, an ethereal jam develops, built around a Trey solo and some lovely accompaniment by Page. Much of this version sounds like screwing around, but the best part has some real power.

Timber (Jerry the Mule)

Fierce playing by Trey on this intense version. Don't be fooled by the early date - this is an awesome version.

Versions phish.net's jam charts single out as noteworthy.

Setlist notes

Lushington did not contain any lyrics. Makisupa included the band playing with varied special effects. This setlist is likely incomplete.
