Brown Eyed Women

Spartan Stadium - San Jose State University

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

Mexicali Blues
April 6, 1982
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.

Like a swift kick in the balls or a punch to your temple followed by a fishhook to your mouth on your way down - the band attacks this take.
Sugar Magnolia

Texas Christian University

Strike match and watch it burn- this one hits the pocket hard and it's a full gallop to the finish ...

Beat it on Down The Line
Nov. 14, 1971
Texas Christian University

Dis one iz verry nice... energy hey! and it got me to listen to my sleeper favorite Bertha opener - holy Bejeezus - this might just be your new favorite Bertha if you give it a shot. It gets me in the feelies everytime, Jerry fills, percussive Keith, Bobby in the GROOVE and Billy locked down. Dennis Foreal Foreal.......
The Other One
Feb. 15, 1969
Electric Factory

Jerry x Gibson SG ^1969 = a straight up TOO bitch slap to the audience every time. The lead in jam is PARTiCULARLY mean - of course don’t forget to TURNITUP!
