A number of dank NFA>GDTRFB>NFA's from E72. This one included. it contains the Bob China Cat riff before going into a hot GDTRFB.

A very inspired version amongst an O1 sangwich. BTW....the O1 is one of the best of E72.

They really drive this one home as they close this epic 2 show run.

Overlooked show due to epic previous night, but this wheel is just sweet. Btw...this show is no slouch either.

Foolish Heart
June 22, 1991
Soldier Field

This show may be the best of that great summer tour. This Foolish is awesome, definitely should be ranked higher. Jerry's final solo is crazy...you can tell the band is ready to stop, but Jerry goes until he decides. Rumor it will be a DL pick.

One of the best here. Almost 17 mins. Everyone is firing on this one. Top 5 IMHO.
Attics of My Life

Attics is always so fitting at epic shows. This is a beut.
Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain

Hey Slowly too...glad u voted this up. I would like to mention that Dick put this in his top 5 of all S>F's. The ending crescendo and the rider transition are just a few of the many aspects that make this version epic.

It tells you how crazy this version is for it to be in the top 20 of all DS's. It definitely deserves it for its complete scariness and for that to happen in the late 80's...it deserves its place in GD lore.
