Wild late version, with Bobby really going for it on the ending vocals. I love this fucking show so much.

The early 1990s' performances of "Wharf Rat" sound so haunted, and this is a crimson colored scorcher with an almost spectral aura.

I'm not big on post-Brent versions of this song: his 'henhouse' verse made it for me. But this is a monster: Jerry just tears it a new asshole. One of the highlights of one of the best shows of 1991.

Shit, this version is hot, and I'm normally not a "Sailor -> Saint" fan. Bob's vocals are so animated here.
Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain

Charlotte Coliseum

Another one whose ranking confuses me. Every 1991 version with Bruce outranks this one. How 9/4/1991 or even 10/31/1991 have so few votes in comparison is strange.

I used to not like this one because of the accordian, but there's so much soul in Jerry's delivery on this one.

Heartbreaking. So much soul here.
