Doesn't seem to want to end - some vocal flubs from Bobby but excellent and energetic version

Very hot and heady Other One out of space, leads into a great Dew

Eyes Of The World

Maybe not the most exploratory but it's clear the band is having fun - solid 80's version

Wharf Rat
Oct. 16, 1974
Winterland Arena

Very jazzy Wharf Rat, possibly best of '74?
Wharf Rat
March 23, 1974
Cow Palace

Best wharf intro? At least of '73-'74 period?
Foolish Heart
Aug. 13, 1991
Cal Expo

Arguably one of the most solid versions of Foolish on every level imaginable
Dear Mr. Fantasy
July 6, 1984
Alpine Valley Music Theatre

Interesting to note that Jerry sings the first few lyrics without Brent - not sure how many times this has happened
Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain
March 28, 1985
Nassau Coliseum

The jam in between is to die for - might be my favorite S>F from the mid 80's. + Bobby is just killing it. The SBD mix is perfect
