Good Lovin'

The Palladium

I typically find the post '72 versions of this song to be a bit of filler, but this one has some nice accents from Keith and some ramp-up ending chaw

Albuquerque Civic Auditorium

Relatively short, given later incarnations, but this one has wonderful energy behind it, deliberate playing, and a delicate finish

Jack Straw
Aug. 22, 1993
Autzen Stadium - University of Oregon

Tough that Bobby has technical issues during this Straw, but he leaves the boys to tear this version a new one. Jerry shreds this to pieces! Very, very nice.
Days Between
Aug. 22, 1993
Autzen Stadium - University of Oregon

This is very patient, poignant, and soulful. Jerry's vocals and playing are hauntingly on point. Very nice
Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain
July 7, 1989
JFK Stadium

Spun this one several times this weekend. Jerry's leads at the end of Scarlet are just incredible. He repeats a lick toward the end that sounds so vibrant, like a bell ringing. Coupled with a sick FOTM, this one has all-time status
Brokedown Palace
March 26, 1990
Knickerbocker Arena

This one shines
The Other One
Aug. 23, 1971
Auditorium Theatre

The jam after the MAMU is crispy goodness. This one delivers
