Another great performance from a seriously neglected show, tight Dead w/incredible sound, great Weir vox and awesome Jerry guitar, strong all the way

Dupree's Diamond Blues
Nov. 2, 1985
Richmond Coliseum

Jerry's amazing tone is fat, crunchy, and wah-ed up psychedelic. Should definitely be ranked higher than 3-26-90 as at least the best post 70's version and I would argue better than 1969, which may be sacrilege, but there it is.
Johnny B. Goode

Portland Memorial Coliseum

It's too bad there is only an audience version available because it rocks.
One More Saturday Night

100% on fire Saturday Night after a string of several on fire tunes...Seriously rocking version. Keith is out of his mind. Donna even does a big growly thing and it fucking works!
Goin' Down The Road Feelin' Bad
May 19, 1974
Portland Memorial Coliseum

BeggarsTomb summed it up. Really from Peggy-O on through this Goin Down The Road, the Dead were 100% on fire this night.

Spectacular version. As much jazz as it is funk and much different than what I'm used to.
