Ramble On Rose
Aug. 6, 1989
Cal Expo

1989 was a banner year for this song. Brent is on fire and Jerry is, well, Jerry. Killer version.

Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum

The symbolism of playing this one at Keith & Donna's last show makes this one significant. Great version.

Really strong version. Jerry's vocals are particularly sharp and playful here. Bobby and Brent deliver big here.

Jerry's solo is really good. Sharp tone and strong playing. Phil is also on fire.

What was with the Steely Dan ripoffs (this, Way to Go Home, Samba in the Rain)?
Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain
June 19, 1994
Autzen Stadium, U. of Oregon

"Scarlet" is a throwaway. On "Fire," you can tell Jerry is lucid, but in a 'I'm trying my damndest to find the X factor' way, without ever actually reaching it. The drummers carry this one.

Choice version. Really lovely all around.

Sounds like they're gonna go into "Crazy Fingers" at the end.
