Tight reading of this classic.

Very hot version. Gets bogged down in too many bop-bops, but the mid-jam is fiery at this great 1993 show.

Shoreline Amphitheatre

Another great 1991 version. On the new 30 Days of Dead for 2019 along with a smoking "Deal."

In no way does this compare to the Mount Rushmore version on 3/27/94, but a solid take with a very good finale.

Merriweather Post Pavilion

Coming out of Bob's "Bob Star" rap. Not the leanest, meanest, longest or most jammed out version, but good in its own way and Jerry does some work.

This one's spooky.

The more I listen the more I'm convinced this has become an all timer for me. Jerry's last two solos in "Fire" epitomize 'incendiary.' Grab a hold of something, because my chair buckled during this one.

Brent works himself into an absolute lather here.

This version is not sluggish at all. It's faster than some 1980s' version and has great work from all involved.
Jack Straw

Boston Garden

Another great 1991 "Jack Straw."
