Providence Civic Center

Awesome version. Listen to Jerry from the start and especially his solo (and Phil). This spring tour comes to life right here.

Alpine Valley Music Theater

The first time I heard the solo I didn't notice it. The second time, I liked it. The third time, I loved it. The fourth time, you get the idea.
Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain
Aug. 17, 1980
Kansas City Municipal Auditorium Arena

Double solos in Scarlet are great, especially the second one. Angry and finally resigned. Also notable that Jerry plays the coda with the mutron right away.
They Love Each Other
Aug. 16, 1980
Mississippi River Festival

Jerry means every note in the solo and especially the ones he doesn't play.
Ain't Superstitious (Meet Me on the Bottom)
March 29, 1985
Nassau Coliseum

^ The YouTube of it is funny https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8ERRwGJY_4Y. Kelly picks up a stick at the end and tries to say something to Mickey but just skulks away. It's heartwarming to see Mickey standing up for his brother Billy like that

Memorial Coliseum

The false start on the fourth chorus of the solo is a thing Jerry does that I love so much
