JGB version. One of the best by any Dead related entity. Jerry is hungry.

One of if not the best I've heard. Jerry rips the paints off the walls.

Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain
Dec. 19, 1993
Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum Arena

Agreed, this is the best "Scarlet -> Fire" I've heard from 1992-93, which overall wasn't a strong period for the combo. It's better than the absurdly ranked 9/13/93, though both don't deserve more than 10-15 votes overall.
Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain

Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum

The way this one is played, the rhythm or whatever, sounds more like a 1970s' "Scarlet," it has that swing, that lilt that 1977-78 versions have. Cool version.
The Race Is On

Madison Square Garden

Not bad at all for a song played, what, four times since 1986? Vince does indeed crush it here.
Baba O'Riley > Tomorrow Never Knows
Sept. 20, 1993
Madison Square Garden

Vince's vocals aside, this is the best version.
He's Gone

Sublime version.
