Jam chart entries
Sneakin' Sally Thru the Alley

Rocking bridge. A very subtle vocal jam can be heard from 5:33 - 6:55. A great rhythmic, "Manteca"-like jam continues following the (non) vocal jam.

It's Ice

"Lengthwise" sandwich occurs with Fishman singing the verses into his Electrolux.

Lengthwise

> in from "It's Ice." Fishman sings the verses into his Electrolux. > back to "Ice."

It's Ice

> in from "Lengthwise" to complete this version of "Ice."

Brother

> in from "Mango Song." Has a distinctly funky sound at first. Lots of great shredding by Trey. At about 4:50, breaks into a brief, funky, very non-"Brother" groove, then returns home to conclude.

Maze

> in from "Contact." Great Page section where there's a lot of back and forth between Page and Trey. Trey's turn is not as dissonant as many of the versions here, but he shreds it up pretty impressively.

Prince Caspian

Even people who dislike "Fuckerpants" should give this celebratory and high powered version a listen. > to "YEM."

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

Setlist notes

Lengthwise was played for the first time since October 20, 1994 (292 shows). Contact was performed “Mexican Love Style,” as Trey dedicated the song to a couple he met who had fallen in love.
