Let It Grow
Dec. 27, 1982
Oakland Auditorium

Jer's tunneling furiously not as fast as some but with determined crankiness. Cowbell, loping Phil all here - great dissonant ending.

The whole gang collectively barrel roll through this one in hot fashion and then DJ squats on it.

Stagger Lee
Dec. 17, 1978
Fox Theatre

Crack - I am always looking for a great Stagger Lee which is a tune that can be a winner or fail miserably. Sorry can't tag this one with a thumbs up - wanted too - maybe it's the recording but this pace kills me - I would like to hear what you think of 12/28/78 same vintage and I think a great quality take on this sketchy number.
Caution

My original description does not do this take justice - I would like to amend it to: Really Jerry? Really ???!!!
The Other One

Soldiers & Sailors Memorial Auditorium

Welcome to the looney bin or the slaughterhouse...depending on how you look at things. I suggest headphones for full effect of this auditory windowpane. Jerry makes pass after pass at your head with his scythe. dark, dark, dark.

Carousel Ballroom

Hey Darkstar I listened to that Alligator again and yeah I think I faintly hear Mountain Jam too but more at the 7-10min mark - very Duanesque anyway...
