The Other One

Giants Stadium

Everyone goes on about the (awesome) "Dark Star" jam out of UJB but there's definitely a healthy dose of "The Other One" in there as well.

Last Godcheauxs version. Donna has a good time.

New Minglewood Blues

Shoreline Amphitheatre

From the HBO broadcast. Surprised it's not here. This is hot, especially on Brent's end.

I Need A Miracle

Madison Square Garden

How? How is this not here? Dick's Picks 9. Out of a freakish post-SOTM jam. Bobby roars. Phil rolls thunder. Jerry is on fire.

Terrific version.
Fire On The Mountain
Sept. 24, 1987
The Spectrum

Jerry's in shit voice for this one, but the playing is undeniably hot.
Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain
Oct. 21, 1983
Worcester Centrum

Deserves to be ranked in the same universe as 10/14. Very different but equally strong and creative.

Saratoga Performing Arts Center

Top 5 version for me. Not a wasted moment.
Candyman
April 1, 1995
Pyramid Arena

This "Candyman" is damn fine. Perfect combination of logistics, feel, and full band effort. Really strong version that's not 1995 quality at all. These two shows are the bee's knees for the year along with 2/21.
