Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain
May 31, 1992
Sam Boyd Silver Bowl

A "Scarlet -> Fire" not listed? Color me shocked. This one's a good one from the last of three really great nights in Vegas. Jerry's dialed in.

They Love Each Other
Sept. 11, 1982
West Palm Beach Auditorium

Surprised this isn't up; this whole show is quite hot and has a very unique, calypso sort of vibe. This TLEO is a great example of that. Check it out.

Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum Arena

Earth shaker! Great middle jam, enthusiastic vocals from Bobby, this one is a gem.

Days Between
March 11, 1993
Rosemont Horizon

Very strong and powerful version. Jerry is in great voice and the outro is magnificent.
China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider
Oct. 27, 1990
The Zenith

This version had me bouncing up and down from beginning to end. What a truly sublime take on the combo.
Eyes Of The World
July 2, 1991
Giants Stadium

The best nonexistent version.
China Doll
July 30, 1983
Ventura County Fairgrounds

Someone described this version as having every tempo all at once. It's a very good description.
Victim Or The Crime
June 11, 1991
Charlotte Coliseum

The "Victim / Eyes" combo here is hugely underrated. Out of this world jamming and mammoth versions of both songs.
