Starts off slow but then breaks into a Nobody's Fault jam and a great space segment.

Big River
March 14, 1990
Capital Centre

The nice set of "Never Trust a Woman" and "Mama Tried > Big River" contribute to the old-timey fun of this show. Solid version here, with a brief piano solo and some great cowboy leads from Garcia.
Feel Like A Stranger

Huge sound from Brent on the synths, very supportive interplay driving Bobby. Nice Phil sound, and Jerry builds the whole band to a nice top.

Solo's a little tentative, but Garcia is having a blast playing the tune. Video's worth a watch: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sUwC6tDJD1o#t=33
Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain
Feb. 5, 1978
Uni Dome, U of Northern Iowa

Probably the best Keith playing I've heard, probably the most musical "Scarlet," probably the most jammed-out version. Simultaneously. And that’s *before* “Fire.” I love the Copps version (Mosque is obviously overrated but well-known), and there’s no way this version right here is not a serious competitor for #1 (aside from being less well-known). Dusborne matrix is the bus, get on and see for yourself. The preceding “Samson” and Bobby bit are must-hears too.

There's a reason this is rated almost twice as high as its nearest competitor. Some of the hardest rocking Dead you will ever heard.
