Wow Jerry gives every single word a little extra attention, dialed in a very emotional reading. Brent is fantastic on this version. A classic take.

This one really shines to me in a month full of excellent versions.
High Time

Fox Theatre

This is Magic, one of the best High Times I have ever heard. Mellow and passionate. Jerry and Donna both sing this perfectly.
Bird Song
Oct. 27, 1990
The Zenith

Excellent version. Great show.
Truckin'
July 14, 1981
McNichols Sports Arena

The segue from Truckin into eyes is fantastic pure Jerry magic. Blissful little jam. Also love the bobby whistle blowing to start the song, good time version and well played.
Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain
July 13, 1981
McNichols Sports Arena

Scarlet really boogies some sweet jams played at a fairly breakneck pace, fire is explosive if a little on the short side. certainly deserves more than 2 votes it currently has. Rather interesting transition jam before Phil starts laying down the Fire theme.
