I Need A Miracle

Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum

Nothing out of the ordinary, just a rock solid version coming out of Space towards the end of a terrific set. Great Jerry licks.

Drums -> Space

Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum

Excellent D/S that capitalizes on the weirdness of the preceding "Uncle John's Band" meltdown.

He's Gone

Madison Square Garden

1994 gave us some great versions of this song. This one from the lauded MSG run is no exception.

Bright, peppy version from one the two or three truly great 1986 shows.

Greatest Story Ever Told

The Spectrum

Just a solid well played version in a thoroughly enjoyable set. Jerry's on his game for this one.

The Other One
April 6, 1982
The Spectrum

Given how ridiculously short it is, this one packs a huge whallop; it is indeed quite nerve wracking, Jerry is furious here.
Aiko Aiko
Oct. 27, 1991
Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum

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
Oct. 27, 1991
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.
