They attack this one with a rare level of energy and precision. Nice showcase for Pig on Organ too.

Playin' In The Band

Frost Amphitheatre
Just because it's not epic in length doesn't mean it isn't super heavy and full of great ideas. Lovely version.

Rheinhalle
There are too many versions I like better to give this one an upvote, but Keith's piano fills on this version are worthy of mention.
China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider

Jerry does some very cool chordal jamming in the transition jam that struck me as fairly unique.

Strand Lyceum
I really love this brief window when Keith and Pig are both playing actively. It's not the most epic version, but it does have fantastic vocals and a rich group sound on the instrumental portion.
Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain
Oct. 22, 1978
Winterland Arena
A cool version. As others have observed, it's quite mellow. But in that mellow space is a lot of creativity from Garcia/Lesh/Weir. The transition jam is full of delicate, unique passages — a pleasant energy current that runs through FOTM.
