Jack Straw Lovers, This version jumps off the stage. It's outright rockin. To be lost down here with just 3 votes is a shame. The energy is contagious. Bob and Jerry both wonderfully in sync. Couple of Phil bombs. It's one of my favorite versions and I know every every version voted above this one.
Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain
July 1, 1985
Merriweather Post Pavilion

In one of those odd GD serendipitous events, the whole band jumps into double time in the last 1:10 of Fire leading to probably one Jerry's best uppity chord solos ever. It's a tight, coke-y version and tons of fun to listen to. This version is totally underrated.

Totally flubbed it and totally pulled it off. I love it. A unique version of this song.

This Cassidy is certainly overlooked - The whole show is hot one with a smoking 2nd Set Let It Grow.
