A sprawling and celebratory 2nd set opener to a fantastic under the radar show from 1987

Energetic and well jammed. Hornsby really shines on this version.

Under the radar version from St. Patrick's Day '88. Really loose and shreddy, nice segue into Eyes

Merriweather Post Pavilion

Lyrics are flubbed but that final solo has some hot licks.
Lazy Lightnin' -> Supplication
Dec. 3, 1979
Uptown Theatre

The Supplication is great! Jerry really shreds it.
Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain
Dec. 3, 1979
Uptown Theatre

This version from the Dave's Picks vol. 31 barely registers on the list. As said above it's a nice chill listen with some good groove to it. I can easily see why this version gets lost in the realm of the other great ones from '79 though.

Deer Creek Music Center

This version is near perfect. Both Jerry and Brent have excellent solos and the band is melding quite well.
Terrapin Station
July 18, 1990
Deer Creek Music Theater

A nice version of Terrapin. It's the pre-drums jam that makes this one worth the listen.
