Fun stuff, especially Brent's organ; actually enjoyed the Good Lovin' it goes into more than I usually do with Bobby versions.

U.S. Blues (Wave That Flag)

Activity Center - University of Colorado

Part of a nice 1-2 punch encore; the final, high energy rockers really elevate this show.

New Minglewood Blues

Cameron Indoor Stadium

Energetic version sandwiched between a KILLER Row Jimmy and an interestingly tempoed Loser.

Ramble On Rose
Dec. 30, 1979
Oakland Auditorium

Nice pace and vocals, almost as rockin' as the (pinnacle) '78 versions, with some Brent keys thrown in.

Brown Eyed Women

Palace Theatre

Nifty '72 BEW sets-up a lovely, exploratory PITB...hold on to your hats for set 2, with a criminally underrated top 10 of all-time Dark Star.

Oh, Brucey. You really rocked it on this one. Such a happy, good vibes, upbeat version.

very unique version. unlike any i've heard. long and jammy and relaxed, not the usual super high energy, but still very cool.

Yes. Yes. Yes. Pretty and mellow and groovin'.
Space
July 17, 1976
Orpheum Theatre

(i know technically this could/should be considered an extension of the other one jam...but as it is called "space" on the official release...anyway, super slow and meandering at first, but give it time...for "space", which i'm usually not a big fan of, it's pretty trippy in a mellow, sleepy, jazzy and eventually 'heady' way...unique, for sure.)
