Jam this (& the Killer TOO) thru your headphones on your dune buggy ride on the Dark Side of the moon.

Listen to your favorite guitarist soundcheck scales - I did - 3 times so far.

To Lay Me Down

The Omni

Keith and Phil flutter around Jer's vocal and then he steams in with his lead. Soft harmonies, sweet sounds...

Lazy Lightnin' -> Supplication
Dec. 28, 1978
Golden Hall, Community Concourse

Someone who loves this combo is more qualified to comment on this - but seems pretty good.

Folsom Field

Jer bites down like a great white on an electric cable - this one burns. Check Sir Mick.

Cryptical Envelopment

7 Lousy votes for what is arguably some of the most worthy hard jammed acid rock from your favorite band. Get back to the roots, run for the hills, Katie bar the door and try to put this fire out and good fucking luck. KILLER I repeat killer That's it for the Other One. The CE reprise in particular is basically the sounds of a Red Dwarf changing to Blue.
China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider
Nov. 14, 1972
Oklahoma City Music Hall

Lots of ideas abound here and yes agree they stretch it out nicely - Jer's licks are exploring the outer edges of each song and Phil detonates in the Rider.
New Minglewood Blues
Aug. 16, 1980
Mississippi River Festival

Fiery and spanking nasty take. Recording captures the band/crowd energy really well too. The sight, sound and smells of this show are all right here. .

Shoreline Amphitheatre

Yowzer - I had to go back and listen again. Whew boy that last solo is a wonderfully emotional, melodic trip that hits all the right notes for me.

Ventura County Fairgrounds
