Swingin' energetic version. Really kicks at the end.

This one crackles with energy. Bobby really lets it rip.

Super tight version with a great mix and some nice harmonies.

Cumberland Blues

Oklahoma City Music Hall

Another blazing version from a prime Cumberland year. Doesn't quite match 11/17, but is still oh so fine.

Sweet and mellow, well played by the band, and nicely sung by Jerry too.

Morning Dew

Springfield Civic Center

No way man, this is a great version. Well executed and full of energy from that nice Jam.
Feelin' Groovy Jam
Oct. 2, 1972
Springfield Civic Center

Great Jam! There's even some New Speedway Boogie happening for a bit. The whole Truckin->Jam->Dew sequence is a nice preview of the 73-74 style.
Casey Jones
Sept. 27, 1972
Stanley Theatre

Pretty ragged vocals, and Jerry blows the solo, so I can't give this one a vote. I think 9/17 is the best September Casey.
Cold Rain and Snow
April 17, 1972
Tivolis Koncertsal

Best Europe '72 version, even better than the one on Steppin' Out.
Ramble On Rose
Aug. 12, 1972
Sacramento Memorial Auditorium

Best summer '72 version.
