China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider
April 1, 1980
Capitol Theatre

This “I know you Rider” has one on the tightest, most energetic closing jams you have ever heard. Not a well know show, give it a listen.

Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain
Sept. 4, 1991
Richfield Coliseum

30 + minutes, well jammed, many different themes. The Fire is especially good, both keyboardists adding texture, Jerry finding a few unique rifts.

Augusta Civic Center

Maine shows were always top notch, no different here with an excellent version of Stagger Lee.

Winterland Arena

I’ll give the nod to the 10-18 Winterland version, but this one is also very good.

Fat, Fat distortion during Garcia’s final solo, short but exciting, give it a listen.

Stagger Lee

The Spectrum

Another great version from the fall of ’79. Phil is driving this train, powerful chords throughout, nice Weir solo and then Jerry kills it. “The Song that Women sung…” Road Trips No.1 Vol 1 Full Show
Jack Straw

Campus Stadium - University Of California

“Grendel Books and Music” is right, this version smokes. I just finished listening to the second set of this show, which has some very Heady versions as well.
Deal
May 10, 1978
Veterans' Memorial Coliseum

“Coralsandbelow” and “Maximillian” If you guys like this Deal, (which I also do as well), check out the UVM version from 5/6/78, 3 shows before this one. The Donna warning is also appropriate.
Not Fade Away
April 30, 1977
The Palladium

Yes this whole jam is very good, I love the slow mellow Jerry space jam that melts into Stella Blue, great nomination “hmi1892- another fan”.
Goin' Down The Road Feelin' Bad
June 25, 1978
Autzen Stadium, U. of Oregon

Torin, never stop now is soo right, this version is “Balls Out Rock and Roll”, the peak will leave you breathless, very, very aggressive, surprised they didn’t blow a few speakers.
