The intro is longer than most. Bouncy uptempo version. Excellent jamming.

Always a good way to open the show.

Greatest Story Ever Told

Lakeland Civic Center

I like the way they play this - it isn't direct and in your face. More exploratory than most.

Man, I love these '82 Sugar Mags. Tje energy, focus and execution. They are so damn lively - excellent fast tempo serves this song well.

Mind Left Body Jam
June 8, 1992
Richfield Coliseum

The point being - it's not a Dear Prudence Jam and nothing should be mislabeled.
Drink Up and Go Home
Aug. 5, 1970
Golden Hall - San Diego Community Concourse

It's OK - pretty much just a typical country tune. The mandolin is too loud in the mix, but Jerry's vocals are nice.
Don't Think Twice
July 2, 1986
Rubber Bowl - University of Akron

Frightening. Weren't they supposed to be working on Mack The Knife? I need to take a long, cold shower and forget this ever happened.
Bring Me My Shotgun
July 12, 1970
Fillmore East

It's kinda hard to hear everything, what with all those idiots clapping really loud, but it sounds like it would have been a good acoustic song to work in for Pigpen.
A Voice From On High
May 15, 1970
Fillmore East (Late Show)

That's Bob asking about the next verse. Speaking of Bob, he doesn't have the voice to carry this one.
