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

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

Alpine Valley

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

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

Morning Dew

Community War Memorial Auditorium

Absolutely gorgeous version. Has the majesty of something like "Terrapin" while maintaining the song's apocalyptic intensity.
Shakedown Street

Madison Square Garden

Tight and crispy from an amazing show.
Fire On The Mountain
Sept. 16, 1978
Sphinx Theatre

This version is incredible. The Egypt shows are incredibly uneven, but the Ollin -> Fire -> Aiko is absolutely fucking awesome.

I have to agree that Vince's synth sax sounds really jarring against Branford's much better playing on an actual friggin' saxophone. Shame, because the jam is otherwise absolute aces.

I've been on a kick with "LIG" lately....this one left me breathless.
