A Garcia solo worth savoring. Very special.

Let It Grow

Greek Theater

Ferocious but not reckless. Tremendous feeling and poise. The show as a whole seems woefully underrated.

Bird Song

Greek Theater

Jerry soars from the first note while Brent's compI ng subtly shades darker. A mesmerizing gyre. Check out the fine Keshavan/Miller AUD.

Estimated Prophet

Hampton Coliseum

Roller coaster outro rises, drops, and swerves again and again, led by Jerry at lightning speed.

I love the way Brent contributes to this delicate but sprightly Ship. Magical.

SMOKING! What was this doing with just one vote when I got here?
Not Fade Away

Red Rocks Amphitheatre

I heard MLB for a few seconds right before the pivot to Nobody’s Fault. It’s there.

This is an exquisite Peter from a great year for that song.
Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain
March 28, 1993
Knickerbocker Arena

My only complaint? The Fire, although hardly slight at 12 minutes, sounds like it could have gone on for a few more. The inspiration is seemingly right there.
