Pauley Pavilion

The band is tight and Jerry doesn't miss a beat. Seems like he's surfing with his guitar lines.

Assembly Hall

I think Jerry's working ideas out in new places in the fretboard during the "China" solo, and Brent is contributing some interesting colors.

Nice slow shuffle, and Jerry's playing is quite melodic. But he brings the heat at the end (with some help from Keith).

Some nice playing from Jerry in the solos and transition.

Bobby is definitely on during this tighten up jam. Good stuff.

Is that a question with only one right answer? :)

Barton Hall - Cornell University

welcome aboard Moses! Poke around and find what you like, it's never too late. cgarces is spot on with those recommendations, both are killer. I'd add 7/31/82 (my first favorite) and 2/5/78 (my current fav).

Whoops! Edited. Also bump for the great rap and the fact that the whole group cooks.

They tear this up.
