Jerry's solo are dripping with emotion. Bobby goes for it vocally.

Inching closer to the sheer beast it would become from 1981 onward.

Can't believe how under represented this monster show is. Sweet version.

It's "ROR," It's NYC, 'Nuff Said.

The Other One

The Spectrum

Given how ridiculously short it is, this one packs a huge whallop; it is indeed quite nerve wracking, Jerry is furious here.

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

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

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.
