It Must Have Been The Roses
July 8, 1978
Red Rocks Amphitheatre

One of the most passionately sung Roses out there, all the Jerry ballads from these two nights at Red Rocks should be on the list.

Patrick Gymnasium - University of Vermont

The entire 1st set from UVM ’78 should be in the list, this Roses is another of the gems from this set.

The vocals are very impassioned, Jerry wailing away on the final, Donna in sync. LOVE this version, check it out.

SMOKIN’ 2nd SOLO- This must rank up with the best of '77. Since the WL Box set was released, you should have listened, hit the link, listen NOW!

Mississippi Halfstep Uptown Toodeloo

Omni Coliseum

Very hot late 80's version, The final jam is epic, Myland playing like he's possessed, A great 2nd set opener, the LLR that follows is also very good.
Looks Like Rain

Oxford Plains Speedway

This one is worth a listen, a great version. Now released on the 30-Trips box set, (yes it has taken me 6-months to get to 88') and it must have been the first time hearing it since that crazy weekend in Maine, just gave me tingles. Heard LLR live 67 times and well over 1,000 times since, always has been one of my favorites, cheesey lyrics aside, it was always sung with passion, this version is no different. On par with another great 88' version from Atlanta. This one need more votes, listen and vote.
The Music Never Stopped

Augusta Civic Center

I love this version, released on 30-Trips Around the Sun boxset, the whole show is very good
The Music Never Stopped

Worcester Centrum

Just listened again, (about 10 times) I love this version, released on 30-Trips Around the Sun boxset, it's worthy, the whole show is worthy. I like the Matrix or even just the audience recording, https://archive.org/details/gd1983-10-21.aud.silberman.348.shnf (I was patched into Jeff Silbermans' rig, 2nd Row center), much better than the 30-Trips version, the kick-drum is more muted. One of the best shown opening Music's ever played.
Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain
Oct. 21, 1983
Worcester Centrum

Was at this show and needed to vote for it a long tome ago, just gave the 30-Trips Around the Sun boxset version a listen, WOW!, Great Scarlet, one of the nicest fluid transition jams you will ever hear and an OK Fire. Your really can't be too critical of the Fire, just not on par with Hartford a week before, don't wait give it a listen and vote.
