Felt Forum - Madison Square Garden

Pig comes alive during this song as well as this entire show, and Jerry respond's to his energy level, as does the whole band. I love this show!

Pigs vocals and harmonica are at a high and energetic level on this version. Jerry's guitar playing is a must listen, really!

This is a high energy and very well played version of this song. Bobby is in very good form here.

Good St. Stephen, sanwiched between D.S and The Eleven. Classic Pyhicedelia in the heart of Utah!

Don't Ease Me In

This one, along with the other songs in this, very rare acoustic set, deserves some love; Including the NRPS contribution. The contrast between this stuff and the rocking, energetic songs in the second set, made for a landmark concert. Really good stuff!

Agreed^. Great transition from NFA. Pig was playing some of his best harp on this one. Then, Jerry jumps in with that rich Gibson tone. Every one sounds great on this, as they do for the whole show. This is a real gem, and well recorded in a really sweet room.
Not Fade Away

Capitol Theatre

This is an extraordinary version of this song. The drummers are completely locked in, and everyone else responds. Bobby is doing some very nice guitar exchanges with Jerry, who's tone and nimble solo work is just stellar. Props to Ken and Judy Lee for such a well mixed and clear sounding recording.

It's nice to actually see the band in action. Jerry was very enthused. Every one sounded great. This video should be watched, and this version voted up!

Speedy Jed. Alligator was up to the task, though. Keith was getting the honky-tonk piano sound down in a very short time with the band.
