Not Fade Away
Oct. 10, 1982
Frost Amphitheatre

Amazing tight unusual version with lots of sweet Chuck Berry style jamming. Hugely underrated.

Nassau Coliseum

Brent was way better than Keith. At least if you like rock and roll.

Pigpen plays some excellent organ on this
C. C. Rider
Nov. 2, 1985
Richmond Coliseum

This is automatically one of the best CC Rider's ever because Bobby plays better slide on this version than any other I'm aware of. While Bobby is usually the Donna of slide -- on this version he makes virtually no mistakes!
Let It Grow
Dec. 15, 1986
Oakland Coliseum Arena

starts strong, fast, clean, piercing Garcia w/Spanish guitar, excellent Bob vox, solo gets a bit noodley/spacey, classic laydown, good solid version - underrated
