Wharf Rat
June 16, 1985
Greek Theater

Honored to be the one to submit this one even if I'm shocked it's not here. This is an outstanding version. Brent is spectacular here on all fronts.

Sugar Magnolia
March 23, 1981
Rainbow Theatre

Out of "Stella" comes a thrashy, supercharged, cocaine infused "Sugar Magnolia" that's just delightful.

The Other One
Sept. 26, 1991
Boston Garden

The Magnificent Seven lineup of 1991 strike again with this trippy little concoction. Flows beautifully into verse 2 of "Dark Star."
4
Space
Oct. 31, 1991
Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum

Ferocious beam banging. Disembodied Vader voices. Frightening, unhinged "Space." Leads perfectly back into "Dark Star."

Friend of the Devil
Dec. 5, 1981
Market Square Arena

Outstanding version with beautiful keyboard work from Brent. Can't believe this one hadn't been posted yet.

The Other One
March 20, 1992
Copps Coliseum

This one's spooky.
Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain
Oct. 19, 1981
Sports Palace

The more I listen the more I'm convinced this has become an all timer for me. Jerry's last two solos in "Fire" epitomize 'incendiary.' Grab a hold of something, because my chair buckled during this one.
Far From Me
July 12, 1989
RFK Stadium

Brent works himself into an absolute lather here.
Cold Rain and Snow
Sept. 26, 1991
Boston Garden

This version is not sluggish at all. It's faster than some 1980s' version and has great work from all involved.
Jack Straw
Sept. 26, 1991
Boston Garden

Another great 1991 "Jack Straw."
