Goin' Down The Road Feelin' Bad

Strand Lyceum

Smokin' version aside from the cool sequence of GDTRFB>NFA>Bo Diddley>NFA. Def worth a listen.

I really think this a cool version. Jazzed out in the middle. Tight w/o too much wasted rap.

Smokin' promised land. Super tight. Very under-rated show.

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.
