One of the marks of a great jack Straw is when jerry does those guitar fills around Bob's vocals. Jerry nails that here.

Blazin' hot smokeshow of syncopated bends, slides, and hammer ons that turns the intensity up to 11

Feel Like A Stranger
Sept. 3, 1985
Starlight Theater

Near perfect version (a little sloppy at the end). Better than the Without A Net version.
West L.A. Fadeaway
Sept. 2, 1985
Zoo Amphitheater

Joeshafer nails it. The whole band is tight, Garcia is perfect, Brent takes us all to church. Whole show is way underrated.
China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider
July 17, 1989
Alpine Valley Music Theatre

very good version but, for instance, 6-25-85 Cuyahoga Falls absolutely smokes it (after a slow start, it launches into the stratosphere and never quits)
Truckin'
June 30, 1984
Indianapolis Sports and Music Center

Way underrated. Smokes many a 70's version. Dig that outro descending turnaround jam thing toward the end.
One More Saturday Night
Sept. 21, 1972
The Spectrum

tight and rockin' - underrated
