Awesome version with Bobby all but blowing his voice out on the screams. On 30 Days of Dead sandwiched between Shakedown and Eyes.

I can't believe I'm the first to submit this. Such a killer segment, especially "Space" with its incredible Spanish jam that's one of the best.

Sugaree
Oct. 10, 1982
Frost Amphitheatre

That Jerry...how did he do it? The melodies and phrases he just seemed to pull out of the air. Ethereal "Sugaree," surging with drama and melancholy, from one of the best shows they ever played.

Jerry is unstoppable.
Truckin'
Sept. 20, 1991
Boston Garden

The long outro jam in this version is fantastic. Very rare for them to go the distance on "Truckin'" like they do here.
Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain
Sept. 20, 1982
Madison Square Garden

This one deserves attention. The transition is outstanding. Explorative and melodic.

Delta Center

As good a version as they've ever played of the slow arrangement. Jerry's playing is soulful, soothing and articulate. One of the highlights at the last truly great Dead show.
