This is as good as it gets for this song, which isn't sayin' much. Nice Jerry excerpt here though

This one KILLS all post 1980 versions and maybe even before. Supplication Jam in the middle and Jerry transcends into deep space 9

This is definitely one of the best, if not the best, since 1977. Jerry tore the mid song jam to shreds!

Another winner for this show to pair with the Stella Blue later on in the second set. Jerry hollerin', and hollerin' "fire, fire on the moun-ountain" over and over nearly bring a tear to my eye to this day.

Another reason this is my favorite '94 show, this Scarelet>Fire is top notch

First Terrapin since "his" return! An animated Jerry and cracked out Bobby make this version one of the best ever. There is some serious rock and fuckin' roll around the 9:00+ mark. The crowd goes NUTS! Still gives me shivers! Watch the video
