Don't be fooled by the year. Jerry's total on for this first set and rips out a great "Getaway" at the top.

Jerry and Bob have some fantastic interplay throughout this one.
Greatest Story Ever Told

Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum

Seriously, this needs to be WAAAAAAAY higher. They play this song like their welcoming back a long lost friend. Keith is more alive here than he is in any other part of the show. Jerry's solo is the definition of torched and his fills are to die for. As good as many 1972-74 versions.

Serenity.
Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain
Feb. 26, 1990
Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum Arena

One of those where you really can't find another one like it. This one's a real trip.
China Cat Sunflower
Feb. 14, 1968
Carousel Ballroom

This early version reminds me of the Doors; Jerry even sounds like he's darkening his tone a bit to mirror Morrison a little. Really cool version.
