Jam chart entries
Timber (Jerry the Mule)

Incredible Trey. And Page's keys lend added menace to this tense and harrowing early masterpiece. This Mule bites with a vengeance!

Possum

The beginning of this excellent jam is unusual and in minor key. Version released on Live Bait Vol. 5.

Run Like an Antelope

Kick-Ass version that rages but is also very improvisational. Mike and Trey rock.

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

Soundcheck

Carolina, Funky Bitch

Setlist notes

Ya Mar was dedicated to Heather Paul on her birthday. Mike played Happy Birthday in the beginning of Ya Mar, Trey briefly teased Happy Birthday in Suzy and teased Simple Gifts during BBFCFM.
