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.

Not a monster, length wide, but is it very intense. This whole show is very good.

This is an absolutely GREAT version, the softness, the power, Jerry’s slide in the 1st solo, the vocal’s “Run, Run and see”, the final jam, all outstanding.
Might As Well

Evans Field House, Northern Illinois University

Blazing start to the set, there are a few Might as Well’s from the Fall 77’ tour that are outstanding , Cobo Arena & Seneca but his once stands out as the best. You can see Jerry’s smile as he belts out the refrain, I just LOVE it.
