Lift off during Jerry's solo - maybe some celebratory barkers too before the show.

Garage Band John - crunch, thump crunch crunch...

Loser
April 18, 1971
Lusk Field House - State University Of New York

'71 Losers are the raw, real deal. Biting, snakey leads with a despaired vocal delivery.

Lusk Field House - State University Of New York

Trail dusty and raw with sparky Jerry solo - hot 71 style

The Wheel
March 10, 1981
Madison Square Garden

Some of Jer's most soulful playing on this version - check the space/extended intro - not Indy but still interesting - then he gets after it during the tune proper.
Cold Rain and Snow
June 7, 1969
Fillmore West

Very different take - they clearly decided to try out a different approach this night - cool.
Not Fade Away
March 23, 1972
Academy of Music

This NFA is hi energy jamcity > hi-octane GDTRFB > NFA reprise that is all Bobby and Pig hootin, hollerin and screaming their balls off. 3 mins of intensity is right on.
Goin' Down The Road Feelin' Bad
May 7, 1972
Bickershaw Festival

Uncle John's Band
July 22, 1972
Paramount Northwest Theatre

Like this one and that hollowed out sound Jer's got going - they close with an OMSN that's is pretty crazoid too at this show.
