Capitol Theater

20 min. Pig rap-fest; Heavy and fast barnburner, thunderous drums, and nimble bass

The Other One

Capitol Theater

Three from the Vault version; Tumbling, fiery, madness, Garcia lights this one up; The bus stopped by at the Capitol Theater, did you get on?

Glens Falls Civic Center

Melodic and creative soloing throughout; the transition (">") is absolutely on fire, musical communication between instruments is on point

The energy is off the chain, this is my favorite. Great way to blow up the house.

Yes! Absolutely this is sick. Smoking version, from a smoking show.
Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain
July 7, 1989
JFK Stadium

This is one of the best versions I have ever heard. Jerry thunders through this with some incredibly explosive leads, and the whole band is there with him.
