Wild late version, with Bobby really going for it on the ending vocals. I love this fucking show so much.

The early 1990s' performances of "Wharf Rat" sound so haunted, and this is a crimson colored scorcher with an almost spectral aura.

One word: dynamics, something sorely lacking in a lot of late day Dead. Every subtle nuance, every modulation, every bit of pathos is nailed here. Nothing is left to chance, the band hits the bullseye. Jerry's voice is so good in the beginning, especially when he goes for a softer tone. Perfect performance. The 25th anniversary will be here before we know it, so rev up those upvotes.

This version really cooks. Bob has fire in the belly and Jerry is possessed.

Such a tight, clean show. One of the best ever!
