Whoa. Can't believe this isn't listed. Possibly Jerry's finest ever performance on this song - 20+ minutes of RAW POWER

Curtis Hixon Convention Hall

This one's got some boogy. Keith gives Jer a big kick in the butt during the 2nd jam and they just take off!

Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain

Paramount Theatre

WOW!!! You're not kidding. Next to 9/2/78 and 11/30/80, this Scar>Fire has one of the all time best, super smooth, out-of-this -world transitions I've ever heard. And the Fire ROCKS! Nice call, man!!
Eyes Of The World

Very nice version. The transition into drums is especially well played.
Lazy Lightnin' -> Supplication

Field House - Seneca College

Absolutely my new number one!! Jerry CRUSHES IT!!!!!!!!
The Other One
Feb. 19, 1973
International Amphitheatre

Great version with a nice Phil solo and lots of peaks and valleys. Psychedelic rock at its best.
Eyes Of The World
Oct. 9, 1982
Frost Amphitheatre

A very beautiful and patient Eyes, unique in the fact that it's not speed-laced like most '80s versions. Must hear material from a great show.
