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.

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

Samson and Delilah

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.

Eyes Of The World
Feb. 3, 1978
Dane County Coliseum

Sparkling, effervescent, crystal clear and overflowing with inspiration. This one soars on wings a mile long, lifts off like sparkling light dancing on the ripples on the calm, powerful, and open sea. Certainly it's one of the great beauties. Cool comments Heads: I like "This is why and how" - Thanks Wookie.

Feelin' Groovy Jam
Oct. 30, 1973
Kiel Auditorium

They stretch this out and really take off in the FGJ, like a chemical reaction slowly churning up, then building to a bubbling musical overflow.
El Paso
Oct. 30, 1973
Kiel Auditorium

The honkytonk first set is perfected here. Jerry is possessed, galloping 100 mph behind, around, above, and in-between Bobby's flawless delivery. El Paso never gets enough love... but you can tell they're just having a blast here.
Mexicali Blues
Oct. 30, 1973
Kiel Auditorium

Follows straight out of a very western-swinging Deal and holds onto the desperado theme. Some folks find this show to be a bit too mellow, a bit slower tempo for an era filled with electrifying whirligigs, but this Mexicali shows how well they could sync together at any speed, at any energy level during this peak era.
