Short rocker with expanded forces. Killer.

Madison Square Garden

Can't believe this isn't on here. Worth hearing for what Hornsby plays behind Bobby, much less Branford.

RFK Stadium

Whoa.
Man Smart, Woman Smarter
March 16, 1990
Capital Centre

Also wanted to add a comment about the distinctive "Eyes"-type riffing that occurs about 2/3s of the way in.
Estimated Prophet
May 25, 1977
The Mosque

Agreed. Show as a whole is overrated.
Playin' In The Band
May 14, 1974
Adams Field House, U of Montana

I confess that I am just not a big fan of the PITB-type jams, but this is extraordinary stuff.
Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain
Feb. 5, 1978
Uni Dome, U of Northern Iowa

Bump for Jerry's birthday. "Samson, Scarlet > Fire" is all time stuff. Whole run from Feb-May (including the Jerry Band stuff) is killer.
