Brown Eyed Women
April 22, 1979
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.

Thompson Arena - Dartmouth College

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

Greatest Story Ever Told
Nov. 11, 1973
Winterland Arena

A very fast & rockin’ take - definition of a “barn burner” as noted above.
Candyman
Nov. 22, 1972
Austin Municipal Auditorium

For what it’s worth - this Candyman is very close to perfection and if you care to spin you might just agree. The tone in the solo - great Lincoln’s beard!
Turn On Your Love Light
May 30, 1971
Winterland Arena

Super foot stompin and hollerin’ on the rideout...
The Music Never Stopped
June 11, 1992
Knickerbocker Arena

Jerry soars delightfully over Bobby’s distorted whammy stylings for the end jam- A+ grade racket.
Drums
April 28, 1971
Fillmore East

Gosh sakes you are on the money there, absolutely even more impressive and yeah I should have remembered since the solo drummer years are some of my favorites...old age is a bitch.
