Wharf Rat
June 16, 1985
Greek Theater

Honored to be the one to submit this one even if I'm shocked it's not here. This is an outstanding version. Brent is spectacular here on all fronts.

Sugar Magnolia
March 23, 1981
Rainbow Theatre

Out of "Stella" comes a thrashy, supercharged, cocaine infused "Sugar Magnolia" that's just delightful.

The Other One
Sept. 26, 1991
Boston Garden

The Magnificent Seven lineup of 1991 strike again with this trippy little concoction. Flows beautifully into verse 2 of "Dark Star."
4
Space
Oct. 31, 1991
Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum

Ferocious beam banging. Disembodied Vader voices. Frightening, unhinged "Space." Leads perfectly back into "Dark Star."
5
Friend of the Devil
Dec. 5, 1981
Market Square Arena

Outstanding version with beautiful keyboard work from Brent. Can't believe this one hadn't been posted yet.

Truckin'
Sept. 20, 1990
Madison Square Garden

Get the audience tape for this one and go to straight to "Truckin'." The sound is in your face and punchy and the crowd is absolutely wild. Bonkers "Truckin'." This whole show is fucking incredible.
The Weight
July 23, 1990
World Music Theatre

It's stuff like that verse being Brent's last vocal and Jerry's last lead vocal being "Black Muddy River" that make me believe in the Dead's cosmic synergy.
Foolish Heart
Feb. 21, 1995
Delta Center

The last truly great Dead show. Jerry is focused, committed, alert, creative. This is a monster "Foolish Heart."
Terrapin Station
June 21, 1980
West High Auditorium

Love this version, very bright and relaxed with nice playing from Brent and a solid vocal from Jerry.
Samson and Delilah
June 21, 1980
West High Auditorium

EPIC VERSION ALERT! Bustles along brilliantly.
