Tight reading of this classic.

Dean Smith Center

Very hot version. Gets bogged down in too many bop-bops, but the mid-jam is fiery at this great 1993 show.

Another great 1991 version. On the new 30 Days of Dead for 2019 along with a smoking "Deal."

In no way does this compare to the Mount Rushmore version on 3/27/94, but a solid take with a very good finale.

Merriweather Post Pavilion

Coming out of Bob's "Bob Star" rap. Not the leanest, meanest, longest or most jammed out version, but good in its own way and Jerry does some work.

Nassau Coliseum

This is a great version and extremely underrated. Coming off Winterland, you can feel the energy of its return to the East Coast.
Touch of Grey
Sept. 20, 1990
Madison Square Garden

Feels like an appropriate statement to end the first great run after Brent died.
Big Railroad Blues

Blossom Music Center

This version should be higher. It fucking smokes.
Eyes Of The World
June 17, 1991
Giants Stadium

One of my all time favorites. They were still knocking it out of the park in 1991.
Morning Dew

William and Mary College Hall

Top 10 "Dew." Unbelievable intensity, especially the drummers.
