Could be longer, but what's here is spooky and fantastic. Great peak.

Dean Smith Center - University of North Carolina
1992-93 was a very strong period for "Terrapin," and this version is no exception.

Jerry floods this "Big River" with some tasty licks.

One of the few songs Keith wakes up for during this show, sadly.
Its All Over Now
Nov. 8, 1979
Capitol Center
It's a shame that the soundboard of this show is littered with problems. It only includes the last instrumental break and Bobby's reprise of the final verse, but it's wholly worth it regardless. Jerry is playing with relish and Bobby goes absolutely batshit as he sings the finale.

Miami Arena
Jerry's broken voice adds so much to this one. Maybe it's just the show's overall reputation, but there's darkness even in this "BEW" (as opposed to the usual wistful melancholy that is the heart of the song).
Dark Star
June 22, 1991
Soldier Field
Indeed! This one could just as well be counted as a legit instrumental "Dark Star" as opposed to just a jam. At nearly eight minutes, it's a fleshed out meditation on the song's main theme. It's not just a tease, the song's melody is all there.

Around 15 or 16 minutes in, Vince seems to jump in on the "Dark Star" teases.
