Nothing out of the ordinary, just a rock solid version coming out of Space towards the end of a terrific set. Great Jerry licks.

Excellent D/S that capitalizes on the weirdness of the preceding "Uncle John's Band" meltdown.

1994 gave us some great versions of this song. This one from the lauded MSG run is no exception.

Bright, peppy version from one the two or three truly great 1986 shows.

Just a solid well played version in a thoroughly enjoyable set. Jerry's on his game for this one.

Should be WAAAAYYY higher. Jerry gets after it like a jack rabbit fucking.

Vince's first is a must hear. Anyone who thinks the post-Brent decline was an instantaneous thing needs to listen to these September East Coast shows. Vince's tone was much cleaner and natural sounding than 1992 onward.

This one should shoot way up to the list. The transition is stone cold brilliance and the "Fire" is a nuclear assault.
