Warfield Theatre

Great example of early '80s style. Mick on the xylos or Brent on some synth job all good.

Jer spanks this rendition with extra hot sauce - and does not disappoint. Super Phil touches check the CM source.

Lively, clean, energetic version with Brent doing his doobie brother backup gig perfectly.

Beautiful Jerry filigree work on this one - superfine in many ways should be waaay higher up the list imo.

One of the Houseboat tapes- Released as Dick’s Picks 35. Killer ‘71 action. Not shown in archives...bummer.
China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider
March 14, 1981
Hartford Civic Center

Noodle city CCat with lots of extra Jerry flourishes packed in. Jerry fades on his Rider verse’s vocal but he roars back with some energetic action - worth the check out. +1. One of my faves for ‘80’s is 4/19/84 which I think burns hot, hot, hot.
