Easy song to overlook (I had no idea I forgot to submit it as I love this show), but this is a good one.

Baltimore Civic Center

Surprised not to see this one; killer start to one of the year's best shows.

Beat it on Down The Line

Madison Square Garden

I often think of this one as a throwaway, but this version flat out kicks ass. Great solo from Jerry. These shows at MSG smoked.

Buckeye Lake Music Center

Great version from one the best 1993 shows. Jerry's vocals are excellent and the outro jam smokes.

Good Lovin'
May 26, 1995
Memorial Stadium

Wanted to bring more attention to this one; regardless of the year or era, this is one of Bob's very best "Good Lovin'"'s, from the last truly great show they ever played.
Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain
April 3, 1982
The Scope

One of the best ever. Should be in the 40-50+ votes bracket. The transition is one of the most creative and intense I can think of.
Eyes Of The World
April 3, 1982
The Scope

Never heard an "Eyes" like this before. Like a totally different arrangement. And it's gorgeous.
Bertha
Dec. 29, 1977
Winterland Arena

Absolutely wild version that never lets up at any point. The mid-jam is indeed ferocious.
Sugaree
Dec. 29, 1977
Winterland Arena

The most intense, volcanic peak of any "Sugaree" known to man. Inhuman.
