Talk about a sleeper...along with the "PITB" before it, this is probably the last time the Grateful Dead really went the distance in terms of jamming.

Searing work from Brent in a typically strong 1989 version. Surprised this was represented from a legendary show.

Creepy crawly version with lots of different themes and moods just like all good Spaces.

Looks Like Rain

Nassau Coliseum

Bob's 'I Can't Stand the Rain' shrieks are hair-raisingly powerful here. Just full of force.

Love how Bob and Jerry intertwine on this one.

This version is unrelentingly insane.
Feel Like A Stranger

Killer start. Every song in this show is a top shelf version.
Eyes Of The World
March 20, 1991
Capital Centre

This show needs far more love than it receives and it starts with this colossal one time only "Eyes" -> "Foolish" combo. Jerry's intro to "Eyes" is jaw droppingly pure and soulful, and not a minute of its 20 total is wasted. This is a Top 3 show of 1991.
