Jerry's voice. Wow. This version is basically studio ready. Phil drops a few well-timed bombs. Just a sweet version all around.
Little Red Rooster

Utica Coliseum

This is a class A rock and roll solo for the Jer Ber in this version. Wow! '81 was tight as it gets tight.
Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain

Capitol Center

The B3 solo in Fire - love it. Could of used more of that actually. Great stuff.

Merriweather Post Pavilion

If this version doesnt have you smiling, I dont know what to tell you. The energy from every member of the band is palpable, Brent's keys, Phil's bombs, the drummers thunder rolls, Garcias fills and Bobby's vocals with high energy screaming, comes together and makes this one a must listen to for all Heads.
