Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum Stadium

View from the Vault IV. A fantastic standalone "Scarlet" coming out of a hot "Hell in a Bucket."

Giants Stadium

Both keyboardists are giving it their all in this triumphant version. The perfect tempo, and perfect energy level!

Not normally a big fan of this song, but Bruce Hornsby on accordion adds a lot of welcome texture to the mix

Fox Theatre

Pig's harmonica playing and singing is great, and the rest of the band sounds just as good.

Brent is all over this one, and makes it a standout from a very good show.

Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain
April 20, 1984
Philadelphia Civic Center

This might be the happiest I've ever been listening to a Scarlet > Fire. Fresh off Dave's Picks 35, this makes the entire album worth it. So joyful and stuffed with positive vibes, particularly during Jerry's soloing.
Good Lovin'
Dec. 31, 1976
Cow Palace

If I'm not mistaken, I hear a little bit of the intro to "Here Comes Sunshine" here, particularly in the first section of the outro jam. It's very cool and a nice transition into Samson.
It Must Have Been The Roses
Sept. 28, 1975
Lindley Meadows, Golden Gate Park

I'm not usually a fan of the Dead's '75 shows, but this one is an all-time best and the highlight of this show.

My favorite Brent version - and maybe my favorite ever!
