2 Drummer breakbeat attack with Phil throwing down the rope a dope and Jer firing darts - this one's lively.

Mexicali Blues

The Spectrum

Admittedly not a favorite tune for me but this is super crispy - laconic delivery by Weir w/ Jer's picking and tone perfection. Whole show is massive.

Playfully different melody here really cool Jer is sporting very catchy phrasing - mid tempo no hurry super chill with highlights.

CC if you like this one (and I really do) check out 12/17/70 - and tell me what you think - it's really special in my book.
Eyes Of The World
July 14, 1985
Ventura County Fairgrounds

This brims with energy one of the best of the 80's.
Stuck Inside of Mobile with the Memphis Blues Again

The Centrum

Play this loud enough and it is really great to my ears - super with high energy.

Community War Memorial Auditorium

This one was hiding in plain sight - tight jammin - check the sbd for full effect.
Uncle John's Band
April 23, 1984
Veterans' Memorial Coliseum

Hey Shack this one is crazy right? Check out one of the best Good Lovin's of the '80's that ends the set with a Bobby rap, Brent scat and extended push back refrain.
