Subject: Monster setlist, with the performance to match
Best of the Summer ‘90 tour? You can damn well make the case. They don’t pull any punches here as far as the setlist goes. The ten-song first set is a doozy. A strong Help > Slip! > Frank opener usually translates to an awesome overall show. This is my favorite Peggy-O of all time. Astonishing vocal delivery from Garcia, with Brent showing timeless artistry on the keys.
The second set is as good as you’d hope for as you look at the songs on paper. Terrapin Station is almost 20 minutes long! Rather than dipping right into drums, they stretch it out for an extra five minutes of intriguing jamming.
This show is Summer ‘90 at its best. It throws its weight around. It’s Phil-heavy. It’s got MIDI. It’s got crunch. The drummers lean into the kits. Brent is flying up and down the keyboard. A spooky The Other One. A thundering Morning Dew.
Generally speaking, the Spring ‘90 tour sounds a little more cohesive, exciting, and divine. Afterall, they were starting the new decade fresh. They were busting out fan favorites. They were in total lockstep. Summer ‘90, on the other hand, sounds a little more blue-collar. They had that laid back but kicking summer tour barbecue vibe. They weren’t playing any repertoire tricks. They were simply dishing up the usual summer tour formula, with purpose and grit. It was just another June-July coast-to-coast high-step with their longest-running lineup. Unbeknownst to them, this tour would be the Brent lineup’s last stand. Fittingly, it's an excellent tour, as exemplified by shows such as 7/18/90.

Subject: Best show of summer 90?
OK, the Dark Star from 7-12-90 is pretty hard to top, but listen to the intricacy of how all the instruments come together on China>Rider and Terrapin>Jam. Then you have the cackling evil laughter to start off a classic Space, an exploratory Other One with Jerry playing with the tonality (throwing in the C of a true E minor scale rather than the Dorian C#), and finally, forget 9-18-87, THIS is the best Morning Dew this side of 5-8-77!!! All that in one show. I missed out on Dave's Picks (sold out quickly), and although this recording doesn't quite match that in fullness of sound and clarity, it nevertheless delivers the experience without getting in the way.

There was a moment in "Peggy-o" I'll never forget. When Jerry sang the line, "Sweet William he is dead..." there was an odd moment of silence after the verse when *everyone* there was quiet. It was like time itself was standing still. All these years later I'm still in awe over the power the band had in 1990
There's no describing the energy of this evening. Just listen and enjoy.

Set II is the wonderous journey to the inevitable, they raise the stakes considerably and features some special moments.This night really belongs to Phil and Jerry and they play off each other and soar. China> Rider is passionate and well played. LL Rain is a beautiful peak and then a full out Terrapin which is one of the jewels of this set, it really is outstanding. A nice jam out of it into a tribal drums rolls into a space that features a laughing man, yes I remember when they sampled stuff like that. The Other One is very strong with a incredible opening lead by Phil. Healy does some of that those racing affects that get louder than the band, I would prefer he left it well enough alone, but it is a stand out version. Morning Dew is really incredible and quite unique. Brent plays cascading B3 and the middle jam explodes, with Phil and Jerry taking it to a peak and then mutually pushing it to an even higher level.That moment when that occurs is totally surprising and intense. I can't recall a similar moment in any other modern version. The ending is great and Jerrry does a beautiful emotional ending solo. The Weight is great, some slight vocal miscues, with another nice surprise as Jerry squeaks in a wonderful solo during the ending harmonies.
First set is 4 Second a 5. Enjoy.
