I Need A Miracle
Tons of energy in this one, especially towards the end. "You need a miracle, I need a miracle, how!" - Bobby
7
Pretty Peggy O
Great jerry jamming
2
Friend of the Devil
Sweet...if for no other reason check it out for the funny Jerry lyric
3
Lazy Lightnin' -> Supplication
Not Perfect, but very high energy. Everyone seems to be trying take it higher and higher. Bobby even gets off a couple David Lee Roth-type screams...
23
Eyes Of The World
A-Mazing version. Great Jerry/Phil interplay. This one has been getting a lot of spins lately
89
Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain
I don't know how this isn't up already. Give it a listen and you will understand.
7
Jack Straw
bliss
6
Estimated Prophet
the jam after "light my way" is a mature one and will kill ya kindly
3
Scarlet Begonias
Jerry rips through 5 processions of the 10 bar phrase. Have not heard anything like it in all my listening. Will not disappoint, ending tremelo is nut
1
Sugar Magnolia
The coolest at 5:15 the recording audio switches to the exact sound emanating from the very top of the stadium into infinity.
