C. C. Rider
Nov. 2, 1985
Richmond Coliseum

This is automatically one of the best CC Rider's ever because Bobby plays better slide on this version than any other I'm aware of. While Bobby is usually the Donna of slide -- on this version he makes virtually no mistakes!
Let It Grow

starts strong, fast, clean, piercing Garcia w/Spanish guitar, excellent Bob vox, solo gets a bit noodley/spacey, classic laydown, good solid version - underrated
Candyman
Dec. 15, 1986

good solid version with an absolutely lysergic solo around 3:16
Althea
Dec. 15, 1986
