As is typical of this era of the band, Keith totally owns this version. I can't get enough of just how tasty his piano fills are here.

Opens set two with energy. Keith and Jerry duel it out the whole way through the song.

Love versions of this track from 72 and 73, and this one's no exception. Keith's piano is great, Jerry's playing with gusto, everyone's locked in.

Keith's gentle keys add SO much to this version - a very emotive rendition, just as it should be

A big showcase for Jerry's vocals - he's nice and aggressive here. Keith and Billy sound great as well backing him.

Hell in a Bucket
March 26, 1990
Knickerbocker Arena

I've always loved Phil's bass on this one - he's nice and loud and keeping up with the fast tempo. Definitely the best version ever.
Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain
Oct. 14, 1994
Madison Square Garden

As massive as the Fire ever got. This is a whole band effort, all the way through to the epic jam at the end. Truly an amazing version.
Good Lovin'

Cow Palace

TheBusCame, you're definitely correct - there's shades of HCS all throughout this version! Pretty cool, considering they hadn't played said track in nearly three years.
Ramble On Rose
Sept. 22, 1993
Madison Square Garden

Love Jerry's MIDI solo here. Turns it into a HUGE version.
China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider
July 18, 1990
Deer Creek Music Theater

Out of control! The Rider is about as fast as they ever played, and the transition jam is an old-school slice of Bobby riffs.
