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.

Jack Straw

Nassau Coliseum

One of my favorites, great vocals and a way above average closing jam
Jack Straw

Seattle Center Coliseum

Good Jack Straw, not great I was at this show and Phil was having a blast. 08-27-83 does have my favorite Brown Eyed Women
Jack Straw

Field House - Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute

This was the first Jack Straw that came to my mind as being up there with 01-11-79, I love the fat sounding Wolf from '78, but 01-11-79 is hotter.
