Jer nails it. Sep. '91 had some great Lee's

Bob really over enunciates all the lyrics which makes this version somewhat unique.

This splendid version of Bird Song includes plenty of bird sounds and a spirited jam segment that crescendos magnificently into an uplifting climax.

Cryptical Envelopment
June 30, 1985
Merriweather Post Pavilion

The segue out of He's Gone into Cryptical is cool. Jerry is disinterested in getting the lyrics correct though.
Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain
June 16, 1985
Greek Theater

FOTM really has some stellar shredding by Jerry. Love this!
China Doll
April 28, 1985
Frost Amphitheatre

Jerry's voice is strained but the playing is exceptional!
Playin' In The Band

Frost Amphitheatre

This tasty grilled cheese and tomato sandwich envelops you with melty cheese that drips perfectly into China Doll and even more perfectly back into PITB. Gives you some nice thick slices of tomato during drums > space and then finally a buttery and toasty segue back to PITB, ending it properly.

This is really cool! Worth a listen. Unique version.
