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.

Should be WAAAAYYY higher. Jerry gets after it like a jack rabbit fucking.

Vince's first is a must hear. Anyone who thinks the post-Brent decline was an instantaneous thing needs to listen to these September East Coast shows. Vince's tone was much cleaner and natural sounding than 1992 onward.

The Spectrum

This one should shoot way up to the list. The transition is stone cold brilliance and the "Fire" is a nuclear assault.
