The Other One
Sept. 10, 1983
Downs of Santa Fe
Don’t miss this wild, careening thrill ride. Start at Playin’ to get the full effect.

Drums -> Space
Sept. 10, 1983
Downs of Santa Fe
Vivid Drums followed by extraordinary Space: a bright, melodic Bob and Jerry jam, then bicycle horns and a rich TOO intro jam.

Playin' In The Band
Sept. 10, 1983
Downs of Santa Fe
More sinister than seductively psychedelic. -> A fairly uptempo China Doll, forming one of my favorite ’83 combos.

China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider
June 19, 1989
Shoreline Amphitheatre
Just ferocious by the end of Rider, but there’s lots to enjoy all the way through this combo.

Ramble On Rose
Sept. 28, 1972
Stanley Theatre
Much like the Philly version a week earlier, this one really shines.

St. Stephen
Feb. 14, 1970
Fillmore East
It was too played on this date.
Foolish Heart
March 20, 1991
Capital Centre
Just enchanting. Jerry and Bruce harmonize on a unique, trancelike outro that itself is a clever variation on the signature riff(s).
Not Fade Away
Aug. 30, 1980
The Spectrum
Are you kidding me?! Hot! August - September ’80 is terrific, one of the brightest points of the entire decade.
Me and My Uncle
May 24, 1972
Strand Lyceum
Jerry lets himself get carried away to great results.
Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain
July 4, 1990
Sandstone Amphitheatre
The transition is abrupt, and Jer messes up some of the lyrics. If you can get past that, this is a great version! Both halves are played with panache and are stuffed with interesting passages.
