China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider

MSG

Classic China-Rider from a great run. 9/18/87 is legendary, but this show, and a lot of the shows from this tour, just as fantastic.

In any other month in any other year, this entire show would be considered a rip-roaring classic (which it is!!). Donna is awesome.

Raw, ragged, savage, pretty darn profound. Almost a Close Encounter out of Space... Always a gorgeous work in progress... Not the best, but....

Holy cow. Wonderful and unique all over the place. Powerful, too.
Eyes Of The World
Sept. 2, 1978
Giants Stadium

Wow. Jerry goes a little bananas, as only he can, toward the end, after a beauty of a loping, grooving Eyes. Wow. Hearing this for the first time in a long time, not sure why it doesn't get more attention. Everything before space is spectacular, and it has a long, powerful first set.
Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain
Sept. 2, 1978
Giants Stadium

Epic.
Let It Grow

Hara Arena

Excellent!!!
Cryptical Envelopment
June 7, 1970
Fillmore West

Scorching Cryptical Coda!!! Goes into drums with weird chants, makes its way into oddly serene Main Ten...
