He's Gone

Five Seasons Center

Solid and energetic. Wraps up a lively pre-drums part of 2nd set. Interesting jam at the end. Phil sounds like he wants to go Other One, never does.

Fast. Fast. Fast. Cokey version seems like it's playing in fast forward. '84 is so unique and magical/dreamy sometimes.

Rich Stadium

Not a big fan of this song usually, but this one's hot. On the 4th of july, short, sweet, everybody's into it. Comin' out of The Wheel and into UJB.

Nice one, rising out of a cool Playin' and getting it's own groove on. Featured on Go to Nassau.

Oh, Brucey. You really rocked it on this one. Such a happy, good vibes, upbeat version.
Not Fade Away

Orpheum Theatre

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

Orpheum Theatre

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.)
