Submissions

Wharf Rat
June 16, 1985
Greek Theater

Honored to be the one to submit this one even if I'm shocked it's not here. This is an outstanding version. Brent is spectacular here on all fronts.
2
Sugar Magnolia
March 23, 1981
Rainbow Theatre

Out of "Stella" comes a thrashy, supercharged, cocaine infused "Sugar Magnolia" that's just delightful.
3
The Other One
Sept. 26, 1991
Boston Garden

The Magnificent Seven lineup of 1991 strike again with this trippy little concoction. Flows beautifully into verse 2 of "Dark Star."
4
Space
Oct. 31, 1991
Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum

Ferocious beam banging. Disembodied Vader voices. Frightening, unhinged "Space." Leads perfectly back into "Dark Star."
5
Friend of the Devil
Dec. 5, 1981
Market Square Arena

Outstanding version with beautiful keyboard work from Brent. Can't believe this one hadn't been posted yet.

Shakedown Street
Oct. 15, 1994
Madison Square Garden

Try to sit still during this one. Ferocious version.
Candyman
Oct. 15, 1994
Madison Square Garden

This should be higher. Jerry's solo is almost "Dew" like in its intensity. He brings it on the vocals too.
U.S. Blues (Wave That Flag)
Feb. 5, 1978
Uni Dome, U of Northern Iowa

Killer. 1978 was the best year for this song. 1973-74 versions may be cleaner, but the song had energy to burn this year.
High Time
May 27, 1993
Cal Expo

Warm and tender version.
Estimated Prophet
March 20, 1991
Capital Centre

"Estimated" destroyed in 1991.
