Deal

Civic Center

Blazin' hot smokeshow of syncopated bends, slides, and hammer ons that turns the intensity up to 11

Poplar Creek

Clarence Clemons sits in for the whole show and really is a great addition. They rock this Let It Rock better than anywhere else I have heard anywhere

Very strong throughout. Excellent Weir vocals. Garcia delivers.

crystalline perfection -- topnotch performance and a topnotch recording
They Love Each Other

Relentless funky Jerry gut bucket
Feel Like A Stranger
Sept. 3, 1985
Starlight Theater

Near perfect version (a little sloppy at the end). Better than the Without A Net version.
West L.A. Fadeaway
Sept. 2, 1985
Zoo Amphitheater

Joeshafer nails it. The whole band is tight, Garcia is perfect, Brent takes us all to church. Whole show is way underrated.
China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider
July 17, 1989
Alpine Valley Music Theatre

very good version but, for instance, 6-25-85 Cuyahoga Falls absolutely smokes it (after a slow start, it launches into the stratosphere and never quits)
