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....

Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain
June 12, 1980
Memorial Coliseum

Around 10 minutes into Scarlet, things get wild, and apparently Mt. St. Helen's was erupting again... Heads exited after scorching show into a storm of ash flurries from up north. Historic night, amazing show!

True. Cue this up in a mix with Good Lovin' and Dancin' from 5/2/70 and you might have a very nice day!
