Let It Grow
April 26, 1983
The Spectrum

Might be my favorite version since I saw it and when it was done my pants were at my ankles - JERRY slays this one in EPIC fashion with Phil crushing heads at opportune moments middle jam has some nice cowbell work too (seriously hahaha). FAST fret work that is clear and concise- really wild one - should be higher!!?!

Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain
March 31, 1984
Marin County Civic Center

Total Winner - agreed Brent is aces on this .... altho wondering if that was Mickey going wicked on the xylos OR Brent jamming with his organ grinder (hah) in the middle of the Scarlet - anyway - great intro to Fire on this one too - stellar versions of each tune.

Jerry's voice just kills me on this one - close to perfect.
