Lazy Lightnin' -> Supplication
June 28, 1976
Auditorium Theatre

High energy and zigzagging, this is a fast one. Supplication is tons of fun, even if they don't quite stick the landing.

Looks Like Rain

Auditorium Theatre

Brilliant rise to a climactic finish. Jerry soloing like a man possessed behind sweet Bobby/Donna '76 harmonies. Nice one.

Promised Land

Auditorium Theatre

Up and jumping show opener from the first note. Keith's solo is brilliant.

Samson and Delilah
June 27, 1976
Auditorium Theatre

Way up tempo, sparkling and crispy with enough of both the gospel saint and the heretic sinner to make this one much fun. The '76s are just brilliant.

Whole lot of fun here. Sounds like they meant it on this one. Closes out a great first set.

Sugaree
March 18, 1977
Winterland Arena

Keith is glorious throughout this beauty. I'll admit when I see a 14 minute Sugaree there's a part of me that says 'uh-oh, hope it doesn't drag....' But this is just pristine throughout: Hot jams, clear ideas and solos, with mindbending guitar effects that think are the first-ever for their kind. And that Godchaux fella tickling the keys. Nice one!
Its All Over Now

Winterland Arena

After two shaky songs to start the first set Bobby comes steaming in with this beauty.
Morning Dew
Feb. 27, 1977
Robertson Gym, UC Santa Barbara

For any era for Morning Dews this is top shelf. Drops on the heads out of nowhere, capping off a good - but not necessarily great - 2nd set.
Dark Star
Feb. 18, 1971
Capitol Theater

Music to practice levitation to. Also the best damn Rat Sandwich you'll probably ever eat.
St. Stephen

Robertson Gym, UC Santa Barbara

The 'bell-ringing' chimes section of the last solo before the out-chorus is top notch, but this one otherwise drags a bit to start.
