Intriguing Set 2 opener "Scarlet -> Sugar." Nice MIDI at the end.

This one shines from my favorite Hornsby show.

Man was 1990 a good year for this song. Terrific version, great solo, nice ragtime-y work from Bruce. Just exactly perfect.

Listened to this show because it was played the day I was born. A great Hornsby era version.

I'm not big on post-Brent versions of this song: his 'henhouse' verse made it for me. But this is a monster: Jerry just tears it a new asshole. One of the highlights of one of the best shows of 1991.
Lost Sailor -> Saint of Circumstance
Sept. 11, 1982
West Palm Beach Auditorium

Shit, this version is hot, and I'm normally not a "Sailor -> Saint" fan. Bob's vocals are so animated here.
Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain
March 23, 1995
Charlotte Coliseum

Another one whose ranking confuses me. Every 1991 version with Bruce outranks this one. How 9/4/1991 or even 10/31/1991 have so few votes in comparison is strange.

Boston Garden

I used to not like this one because of the accordian, but there's so much soul in Jerry's delivery on this one.

RFK Stadium

Heartbreaking. So much soul here.
