Lost Sailor -> Saint of Circumstance

Hartford Civic Center

The Saint is the real gem here. The build up right before the 'sure don't know..' verse is insane!

Morning Dew
March 26, 1990
Knickerbocker Arena

This one is way too low. One of the best post 70's versions..
Here Comes Sunshine
May 26, 1973
Kezar Stadium

Fantastic version, indeed.
Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain
May 25, 1977
The Mosque

Best of '77, and possibly all time..
Morning Dew
May 22, 1977
The Sportatorium

Top notch version from an excellent show. This show is better than 5/8 IMO. If Jerry didn't completely botch the riff at 5:21, I would say this is the best ever. I still give the nod to 10/18/74
China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider
May 22, 1982
Greek Theatre - University of California

I love a good early 80's China>Rider. This one has great energy and is played with precision.
