Fast but very neat and tight. Cool version from the best run of 1986.

Hershey Park Stadium

Motherfucker out of "Cold Rain & Snow." Shit hot and rockin'. A bit sloppy but full of energy.

Sam Boyd Silver Bowl

Vince is admittedly awful here, but Phil and Jer make up for it. Cool version.

Big Railroad Blues

Henry J. Kaiser Convention Center

Not a great show, Jerry still finding strength after the coma. This BRB, however, smokes.

Always the little song that could in any set it appeared in. This one rocks.

AMAZING performance.
Stella Blue

Boston Garden

This. This is where I GOT "Stella Blue." Amazingly, singularly emotional version.
Scarlet Begonias

Alpine Valley

Outstanding, spiritied, uptemp "Scarlet" coming out of a truly hot "Sugar Magnolia." If only they went into "Fire" after, that really would've been ace.
Dark Star
Feb. 22, 1969
Dream Bowl

Really, really nice DS that stays close to the surface. Expert, fluid jamming throughout.
Franklin's Tower
May 15, 1980
Nassau Coliseum

Spectacular version. Jerry's vocals are so crisp on this one!
