Standing On The Moon
Aug. 21, 1993
Autzen Stadium - University of Oregon

Its very good but I dont see how its so much more popular than the others. They even flub around the 0430 minute mark.
When I Paint My Masterpiece

Knickerbocker Arena

Nassau may be the more popular show but THIS is the best Masterpiece.
He's Gone

RFK Stadium

Not necessarily the best, but it get's points for being the afterglow of a monumental Dark Star. Jerry's solos are smooth as butter in this version, though.

This one is a secret winner. Starts plucky and unassuming, gets a bit grungy, segways into psychadelic bliss and then goes nightmare fuel at the end to keep those senses alert. This one is largely overlooked, probably because it gets a little scary at the end but it still doesnt insist on itself. Love it. And to top it all off, it gos into a He's Gone!

Face melter. Kind of reminds me of psychadelic era Beatles for whatever reason.
