Crippling pace Jer had to have carved one off his amp prior to this.

Stella Blue

Veterans' Memorial Coliseum

Controlled distortion is an art that Jer can paint with. Brent lends the waterglass accents here and there all good.

One More Saturday Night
Sept. 28, 1975
Lindley Meadows, Golden Gate Park

JG upfront in the mix and rips your bluesy face off. Cowbells, bangin' keys and DJ caterwauling - it's all here.

China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider
May 7, 1984
Silva Hall, Hult Center

Hey Grendel for killer '84 style in this vein check out 4/19/84 one of my alltime favorite and rippingest '80s China>Riders....No double verse but something was in the air or the drink....
Not Fade Away
April 28, 1971
Fillmore East

Remains a mystery to me how this one does not rank higher and only has 9 votes - should be near the top in my estimation but then I love '71 energy and sound.
Not Fade Away
April 5, 1971
Manhattan Center

still killer
China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider
Dec. 4, 1973
Cincinnati Gardens

Seriously heady '73 action here - laid back but forceful and the peak into the chilliest of Feelin Groovies is not to be missed for those that give a fart...
Bertha
Nov. 14, 1971
Texas Christian University

If this does not make it to one of the top 10 Bertha's of all time - listen to it LOUDER please.
