Beautiful version. Equally delicate and powerful. Wonderful performances from everyone.

this whole show is more sedate and slower than some of the others from earlier this week/tour. Nice Jerry support, good vocals from Bobby.

you're either going to love Jerry's filigree or take it as noodling. I think it adds something to the cowboy songs.

State Fairgrounds Coliseum

so much nasty bluesy Pig-era swagger in these NFA jams
Stella Blue

State Fairgrounds Coliseum

the confident, patient space of some hushed ritual. They're playing whispers in a temple. Destructive.

One of the most expressive versions I've heard. and the > in and out are stellar blues
The Other One

Hell yes! great set from a great run. Beginning of TOO drips in from space—threads and pounds its way into a great build back into the material—into an ethereal transition to Stella. Absolute must hear.
Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain

Nashville Municipal Auditorium

Another pounding version from this tour
