Maybe my favorite. Epic version. Should be here.

Winterland Arena

Perfect version. Also, lengthy. This could be top 3. How is this not on here, yet.

Pretty sick version here. Middle jam is super hot.

Rockin version. Not much is posted from this run in Egypt. Everything is pretty inspired at these shows.

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
Dec. 13, 1980
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.
