Warfield Theatre

I'll be damned. Not here yet. Fantastic jam with Jerry following Bobby's jabs and turns. Also notable because Bobby doesn't trip over the words in Sup

Sometimes you know a tune will be heady on the first note. The crowd seems to know it too. Killer solo.

U.S. Blues (Wave That Flag)

Uptown Theatre

Ass-kicking version, beautifully sung. Notable in that every note of Bobby's slide playing is exactly in tune.

Always looking for the great middle jams in this tune. This one is long, meandering, dreamy

Monster, outrageous solo by Jerry
Mama Tried
Dec. 31, 1979
Oakland Auditorium

Also a great Jerry solo, unfortunately cut short by Bobby
Lost Sailor -> Saint of Circumstance
Dec. 27, 1979
Oakland Auditorium

The jam after Saint is great, Bobby leading the way, Jerry burning. Nice, weird Phil-Bobby jam leading into drums
Eyes Of The World

Oakland Auditorium

Jerry's solos are great on this. Check it out. Also love how he puts on the Mutron in the coda
Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain
Dec. 10, 1979
Soldiers' and Sailors' Memorial Hall

Jerry really nails the solo in Scarlet and is in control throughout. Great transition with stabbing accents by Bobby. Outrageous end to FOTM.
