The Other One

Nassau Coliseum

Don't think it's great on it's own, but nice part of Estimated>He's Gone>D>S>Truckin'>TOO>Stella sequence.

Ship of Fools

Nassau Coliseum

I think this version works best when Keith is adding color to it, and he sounds nice here.

Ramble On Rose

Nassau Coliseum

“Rose” has that nice shuffle-boogie I love so much (I think they nail the tempo). Listen to the crowd explode when he hits the “just like NYC” line!

New Minglewood Blues

Nassau Coliseum

Why should you give a whiz about another version of Minglewood?

Standing On The Moon
Sept. 10, 1991
Madison Square Garden

Loved it, but wished Jerry could have taken more extended lines and played with Branford more.
Dark Star
Sept. 10, 1991
Madison Square Garden

Great version, stellar musicians.
Help On The Way > Slipknot > Franklin's Tower
Sept. 10, 1991
Madison Square Garden

One of the most musically interesting things I've ever heard them do. It is wonderful to see what they can do with incredible musicians.
El Paso
Aug. 27, 1972
Old Renaissance Faire Grounds

No worries, djchall, I wasn't being sarcastic. It's Prankster Dead at its finest, and it's why that transition is all time.
China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider
Feb. 24, 1974
Winterland Arena

Obviously a contender for a top spot, but I give it my vote because of how Winterland sounds here, and how they sound in it.
