Fast but very neat and tight. Cool version from the best run of 1986.

Hershey Park Stadium

Motherfucker out of "Cold Rain & Snow." Shit hot and rockin'. A bit sloppy but full of energy.

Sam Boyd Silver Bowl

Vince is admittedly awful here, but Phil and Jer make up for it. Cool version.

Henry J. Kaiser Convention Center

Not a great show, Jerry still finding strength after the coma. This BRB, however, smokes.

Always the little song that could in any set it appeared in. This one rocks.

Dark Star
Jan. 10, 1979
Nassau Coliseum

This is a great version and extremely underrated. Coming off Winterland, you can feel the energy of its return to the East Coast.
Touch of Grey
Sept. 20, 1990
Madison Square Garden

Feels like an appropriate statement to end the first great run after Brent died.
Big Railroad Blues
June 25, 1985
Blossom Music Center

This version should be higher. It fucking smokes.
Eyes Of The World
June 17, 1991
Giants Stadium

One of my all time favorites. They were still knocking it out of the park in 1991.
Morning Dew
April 15, 1978
William and Mary College Hall

Top 10 "Dew." Unbelievable intensity, especially the drummers.
