Tight reading of this classic.

Not Fade Away
March 24, 1993
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.

Black Throated Wind
May 12, 1991
Shoreline Amphitheatre

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

Morning Dew
June 26, 1994
Sam Boyd Silver Bowl

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

The Other One
June 20, 1983
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.

Barnburner.
China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider
Sept. 12, 1981
Greek Theater

One of the best "China Cat"'s I've ever heard. This deserves a shit ton of votes.
Playin' In The Band
July 29, 1988
Laguna Seca Recreation Area

This covers in 11 minutes what a lot of other versions take 15, 20, or 30 (or 46) to do so. Tight, compact version with sick work from everyone. Phil kills it here.
The Music Never Stopped
June 25, 1992
Soldier Field

Sick version; Vince does some of his best ever work in the jam.
Cassidy
June 17, 1991
Giants Stadium

This is a full band effort that leaps out of the gate and builds to a great conclusion. Flawlessly lands into possibly the best ever "Might as Well."
