One of the highlights of this great show. Nice F-bomb. Killer 7 minute jam follows with Bob hinting Playin.

All these 72 versions have much to offer. This is, as expected, top notch. But not as good as Veneta.
Uncle John's Band

St. Paul Civic Center Arena

I love this UJB mostly for the killer outro and then intro into wharf rat... that little jam between UJB and Wharf Rat is about as unique of an isolated Garcia solo as it gets.

Seriously its the best... Phil Solo>TASB>Eyes
Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain
Feb. 26, 1990
Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum Arena

This is one of a kind monster.... midi me. One of those versions that you have to listen to at least once. I can see one person saying this is out there cool or another saying pure shat.

Three votes... that's fucked up.
