When I Paint My Masterpiece

Autzen Stadium

Brent rocks. Bobby sings his ass off. Great version.

Deer Creek Music Theater

That's tight. And, as someone else noted, Brent is one keyboard playin' motherfucker.
China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider

Blossom Music Center

This is an amazing, incredibly tight version that should be ranked much higher.
China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider

Greek Theater

certainly a great version @grendel: another 1985 China-Rider that is in the same ballpark as this one is 6-25-85 Cuyahoga Falls, OH. That show has the most gut-wrenching "Wish I was a headlight!" I've ever heard Jerry do. The whole show is a monster. I think 1985 was the Dead's best year. Check out 11-2-85 Richmond, especially the Morning Dew. Many others.

Wow. Jerry really lights it up on Rider. Amazing amazing stuff.
