SHOCKED this one wasn't mentioned yet. Even with the crushing cut out in the SBDs, this version still stands at the top

Very hot, tight jam segment. Song has the best lyric ever written: "Let your life proceed by it's own design"

By all accounts, this is a rather goofy song, but i love this version. Entire show is spot on

Absolutely lovely version. Jerry's vocals are spot on and crisp.

This is so perfectly paced. Delicate and patient, to a chilling peak. Love instances where the boys show that they can still dial into the magic in the later years.

Always loved this monster Fire. Such a deep cut - very heady for any era. Oregon sparked the best in the boys

Phil is all over this like stink on a monkey. Jerry shred drives the crowd into a frenzy. Super peaky finish. Choice!

The jam in this is super hot and creative. Relatively short it may be, but this packs a nice punch.
