Bob does a nice little tribute to Pigpen in this one.

He's Gone
Sept. 21, 1982
Madison Square Garden

Very powerful, percussive version. Sounds like they are about to go into a "Caution" jam at the end but it doesn't get there.

Stuck Inside of Mobile with the Memphis Blues Again
July 18, 1989
Alpine Valley

Amazed that anything from these shows hasn't been submitted yet. Top shelf version like everything else from AV '89.

Boston Garden

Jerry botches the lyrics but it's the last Boston Garden version, so that's significant. Nice solo, too.

Morning Dew

Augusta Civic Center

I think my head exploded the first time I listened to this one. It's almost not human how intense this bad boy is.
She Belongs To Me
Nov. 1, 1985
Richmond Coliseum

One of the absolute highlights of Jerry's entire output as a guitarist. I teared up at just how beautiful this version is.
El Paso
Oct. 14, 1994
Madison Square Garden

This is my favorite "El Paso." Bob's acoustic guitar adds a very appropriate touch, and the way Jerry and Phil decorate it is fantastic.

The Palace

Fantastic late day "Bertha." They're really on fire for this one.
Wang Dang Doodle
July 2, 1989
Sullivan Stadium

This version should be at the top. It's unusually spooky and driven, compared to the more relaxed versions that followed.
