Listen to Phil on this one. Then listen to Bobby.

Morning Dew
Oct. 25, 1985
The Fox theater

OK, I'll say it: "I can't believe this isn't on here." Majestic, powerful MD. Jerry on a mission. Bobby playing clippety-cloppety sounds in the coda.

Cassidy

Civic Arena

Jerry sinks his teeth into this jam. A wonder to behold.

Truckin'
April 13, 1985
Irvine Meadows

Arguably the version in which Bobby forgot the fewest lyrics. Also great, imaginative playing by Jerry throughout.

Man Smart, Woman Smarter

Civic Center

From the cold depths of 1985 comes a truly great MSWS. Drums are tight, Phil and Bobby sound great, and Jerry repeatedly comes up with gold.

Playin' In The Band
July 29, 1988
Laguna Seca Recreation Area

The jam charges into dark, weird territory
Bird Song
April 14, 1988
Rosemont Horizon

Jerry is wide awake in this jam. The way he starts it is exceptional.
Bird Song
April 14, 1984
Hampton Coliseum

There is no Bird Song in this show
Space
March 27, 1988
Hampton Coliseum

The space into So What is great. The one after drums is even better. Jerry and Bobby get into something.
Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain
March 27, 1988
Hampton Coliseum

This is the moment Jerry actually emerges from his coma.
