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

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.

Terrific version.
Fire On The Mountain
Sept. 24, 1987
The Spectrum

Jerry's in shit voice for this one, but the playing is undeniably hot.
Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain
Oct. 21, 1983
Worcester Centrum

Deserves to be ranked in the same universe as 10/14. Very different but equally strong and creative.
Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain

Saratoga Performing Arts Center

Top 5 version for me. Not a wasted moment.
Candyman
April 1, 1995
Pyramid Arena

This "Candyman" is damn fine. Perfect combination of logistics, feel, and full band effort. Really strong version that's not 1995 quality at all. These two shows are the bee's knees for the year along with 2/21.
