Wicked jamming from Jerry.

Truckin'
Sept. 20, 1993
Madison Square Garden

Novelty of being done at MSG aside, this is a great version. Jerry reals get after it in the last minute or so.

Johnny B. Goode

Madison Square Garden

Perfect cherry on top of a blistering first set. Vince is on fire.

Greatest Story Ever Told

Really happy I get to submit this awesome version. Jerry is brilliant on it, his fills and his solos come right out of 1974.

Flawless and energetic version. Jerry doesn't a miss a lyric or a change. Perfect start to an epic show.

The Other One
April 6, 1982
The Spectrum

Given how ridiculously short it is, this one packs a huge whallop; it is indeed quite nerve wracking, Jerry is furious here.
Aiko Aiko
Oct. 27, 1991
Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum

Epic version that doesn't quit. The Aiko -> Mona is 25 minutes of Bruce era Dead at its absolute best.

Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum

This really needs more love thrown its way. If it hadn't been posted only fairly recently it would probably get more love. One of their best post-Brent excursions.
China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider
Oct. 27, 1991
Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum

This really is an awesome version. The transition is nice and long, they don't rush it and everyone's doing their part and succeeding. I forgot how thick Phil is on the soundboards from these shows.
Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain
Oct. 14, 1983
Hartford Civic Center

10/14 is a good date for history book quality "Scarlet -> Fire"'s. This one is swimming in precision, power, creativity and groove.
