This is the first Desolation that really clicked for me; could never forget the other Bob singing it, but not this one; from a solid first set--

Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain

Field House - Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute

78's where it's at with Scarlet-Fire -- the band really takes it in so many directions throughout the year. This is a superb rendition, spot on . . .
He's Gone

Baltimore Civic Center

Great vocals AND absolutely superb jam into Truckin' = whole other level
Man Smart, Woman Smarter
Aug. 7, 1982
Alpine Valley Music Theatre

Hot, Hot, Hot! Great interplay with Brent really shining . . . best I've ever heard!
Truckin'

The Omni

Love when they do the Nobody's Fault But Mine jam, and this one is particularly fluid, coming off a huge Jerry solo sequence -- truly stellar.
Estimated Prophet

Huntington Civic Center

Bobby butchers the lyrics but the band is totally on for the remainder. Very hot!
