Alabama Getaway
A rocking version.
4
Candyman
Cler and gorgeous you can clearly hear the crowd getting off on it. Lots of Brent and Phil. Jerry nails the guitar break. Excellent
1
Sugaree
Killer choice for song 2 set 2, It seems to get a little something extra from its set 2 placement, Jerry sings great and wails on the guitar,
1
The Other One
Wonderful segment only the dead could pull off a combination like a beautiful comes a time into a crazy the other one
3
Lost Sailor -> Saint of Circumstance
sailor->saint->Comes A Time Holly smokes this cooks.
2
Black Peter
Love this version. Nice slide playing through the main body of the song and some fine organ from Brent.
1
Mexicali Blues
Jerry's solo will wake you the fuck up with chills down your spine. Phil and Bobby are going for it too.
1
Tennessee Jed
Typical sloppy '80 Jed, until Jerry starts inventing scales. It's like he finds a wormhole to a parralel notational grid.
