Sweet jam in the middle of this Terrapin

An absolute flurry of energy. Scorching version

Show is proving to be a real hidden gem. Mt St Helens was allegedly erupting nearby for the 3rd time during Fire. Really hot Scarlet and on-point Fire

WOW! Quickly pushed to the top of my list for favorite version ever! Amazing initial jam, then they bring it to a whisper, then - massive peak (17min)

Bruce on this - my GOD! Hard to follow Jerry's killer solo, but Bruce practically lights the keys on fire. So, so good. Phil with great thumping groundwork
China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider

Giants Stadium

Agree wholly with initial post. Both China and Rider each seem to have a bit extra room and extension. Bruce opened these kinds of doors for the band in that era to confidently explore. Liking this version a ton

^what the clash said. This version is made by the 2-3 min of seeming drums/space the precedes it. That little jam segment is spacey gold and transitioning into Saint is pretty shocking.

Cracking solid from everyone, with Hornsby laying some thickness

Jerry’s ethereal, tinkling tone on this solo is definitive catharsis.
