Massive Attack by the entire band from 3:30 - 5:30 - sneakers in the dryer and all.

Brown Eyed Women

Spartan Stadium - San Jose State University

2 Drummer breakbeat attack with Phil throwing down the rope a dope and Jer firing darts - this one's lively.

Mexicali Blues
April 6, 1982
The Spectrum

Admittedly not a favorite tune for me but this is super crispy - laconic delivery by Weir w/ Jer's picking and tone perfection. Whole show is massive.

Thompson Arena - Dartmouth College

Playfully different melody here really cool Jer is sporting very catchy phrasing - mid tempo no hurry super chill with highlights.

Solid take with nice Jerry backup howls while Bobby yodels.

To Lay Me Down
May 4, 1981
The Spectrum

nicely paced and lilting vocal from Jer - he had to slow shit down after an absolutely destructive Samson.
Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain
April 20, 1984
Philadelphia Civic Center

The Scarlet jam is triumphant. Major show for me in my years of seeing this band of gypsies.
Truckin'
Nov. 3, 1991
Polo Field, Golden Gate Park

well played with Vince sounding good - this was a memorial for Bill Graham and an awesome day at GG Park.
Hell in a Bucket
July 13, 1989
RFK Stadium

check the CM source.
Pretty Peggy O
Sept. 18, 1974
Parc des Expositions
