China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider

Cal Expo

Fast but very neat and tight. Cool version from the best run of 1986.

Hershey Park Stadium

Motherfucker out of "Cold Rain & Snow." Shit hot and rockin'. A bit sloppy but full of energy.

They Love Each Other

Sam Boyd Silver Bowl

Vince is admittedly awful here, but Phil and Jer make up for it. Cool version.

Big Railroad Blues

Henry J. Kaiser Convention Center

Not a great show, Jerry still finding strength after the coma. This BRB, however, smokes.

William and Mary College Hall

Always the little song that could in any set it appeared in. This one rocks.

Jerry is playing this one for Brent.
The Other One
June 19, 1994
Autzen Stadium, U. of Oregon

This one's awesome. It can hang with 3/27/94 and 3/20/92 as one of the best late era "Other One"'s. This whole second set is awesome.
Eyes Of The World
March 20, 1991
Capital Centre

10/17/94 is not better than this one.
Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain
Oct. 31, 1991
Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum

Do not go to this one if you want to hear mind busting peaks with flamethrower solos from Jerry. What makes this one shine is its subtlety, but more importantly the tight rhythmic dynamic between Phil, Bruce and the drummers.
Casey Jones

Pyramid Arena

Would've been first since 3/27/93 at the Knick.
