Shredded by Jer and Bob was a little slide happy in 78, but works well.

Jerry has an interesting final jam that he rips at the end of China Cat. He also shreds at the end of Rider , too.

Great version of this rare tune at this epic run. Bruce is a nice addition on this tune.

Amazing wheel. Love when the last few minutes of space meanders its way to the Wheel.

China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider

Mississippi River Festival

Definitely up-vote worthy. They are firing on all cylinders on this one. Jer rips a new one at the end of Rider. Good call, Sleuth!
Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain

Long Beach Arena

Great Scarlet>Fire here! Ur right...if DL would have published this one...It would probably be top 5. My beef has always been with the Mosque S/F and Estimated being ranked so high...likely due to it being his first release.

I will give those shows a listen. I know, one should not mention 94 around here...but I respect all the eras with some being more epic than others. With that being said....those 2 versions can hang in any era.

Totally agree with the above...seemed ho-hum, but then Jerry shreds a little.

Good call! Love that short bit of insanity. My unexpected gems are 3/27/94 Dew and 10/14/94 S/F.
