China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider
April 1, 1980
Capitol Theatre

This “I know you Rider” has one on the tightest, most energetic closing jams you have ever heard. Not a well know show, give it a listen.

Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain
Sept. 4, 1991
Richfield Coliseum

30 + minutes, well jammed, many different themes. The Fire is especially good, both keyboardists adding texture, Jerry finding a few unique rifts.

Augusta Civic Center

Maine shows were always top notch, no different here with an excellent version of Stagger Lee.

Winterland Arena

I’ll give the nod to the 10-18 Winterland version, but this one is also very good.

Fat, Fat distortion during Garcia’s final solo, short but exciting, give it a listen.

Goin' Down The Road Feelin' Bad
Oct. 31, 1971
Ohio Theatre

Dick’s Pick Vol. 2- I remember an interview with Latvala talking about the transition jam, which comes after the “We bid you Goodnight” coda, which is unique and truly inspirational. Give it a listen, one of my favorites from ’71.
Goin' Down The Road Feelin' Bad
June 8, 1977
Winterland Arena

This is an astonishing powerful version, a highlight from a very good show on par with Springfield as the best GDTRFB from ‘77
Goin' Down The Road Feelin' Bad
July 17, 1989
Alpine Valley Music Theatre

The best I saw in the late 80’s, love the interplay between Garcia and Mydland, big smiles all around.
Scarlet Begonias
Sept. 25, 1976
Capital Centre

Dick’s Pick Vol. 20, great show, great Scarlet, this one should have more votes.
Scarlet Begonias
March 20, 1977
Winterland Arena

One of the last stand-alone Scarlet’s, this version is outstanding. All the power of ’77 in the final crescendo, harsh cut in the SBD that was posted on the Taper’s Section, some versions have the Aud source patched, try to listen to that one.
