Really fun, rocking version to close out what's really an excellent show. Top 5 of 1993.

Spunky version from the first night of the last MSG run. Jerry is alert, singing with confidence and playing extremely well.

Fuck this song, but the entire show is now represented. Decent Jerry leads.

Lovely version of the Dylan classic. Jerry plays some great leads and his acoustic tone works extremely well here.

Not the biggest fan of this song, but this is a good version with a strong Jerry solo.

Jerry's solo is really good. Sharp tone and strong playing. Phil is also on fire.

What was with the Steely Dan ripoffs (this, Way to Go Home, Samba in the Rain)?
Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain

Autzen Stadium, U. of Oregon

"Scarlet" is a throwaway. On "Fire," you can tell Jerry is lucid, but in a 'I'm trying my damndest to find the X factor' way, without ever actually reaching it. The drummers carry this one.

Choice version. Really lovely all around.

Sounds like they're gonna go into "Crazy Fingers" at the end.
