Wharf Rat
June 16, 1985
Greek Theater

Honored to be the one to submit this one even if I'm shocked it's not here. This is an outstanding version. Brent is spectacular here on all fronts.

Sugar Magnolia
March 23, 1981
Rainbow Theatre

Out of "Stella" comes a thrashy, supercharged, cocaine infused "Sugar Magnolia" that's just delightful.
3
The Other One
Sept. 26, 1991
Boston Garden

The Magnificent Seven lineup of 1991 strike again with this trippy little concoction. Flows beautifully into verse 2 of "Dark Star."
4
Space
Oct. 31, 1991
Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum

Ferocious beam banging. Disembodied Vader voices. Frightening, unhinged "Space." Leads perfectly back into "Dark Star."
5
Friend of the Devil
Dec. 5, 1981
Market Square Arena

Outstanding version with beautiful keyboard work from Brent. Can't believe this one hadn't been posted yet.

Comments

Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain
July 2, 1995
Deer Creek Music Center

Heartbreakingly bad send-off to their most beloved combo. Jerry only does the first verse I think, then completely dozes off.
Estimated Prophet
Dec. 16, 1994
Sports Arena

This needs waaaay more love. No other "Estimated" gets the fuck out there like this one does. It goes to hell.
Hell in a Bucket
Dec. 16, 1994
Sports Arena

Bob does indeed sound very good here. Cool version.
Loser
March 26, 1972
Academy of Music

Pure and perfect. Great show all around.
Days Between
Sept. 13, 1993
The Spectrum

Shame it had to be sandwiched between "Easy Answers" and a perfunctory "Good Lovin."
