They Love Each Other
Nov. 1, 1979
Nassau Coliseum

Phil is doing something very far out on this, especially during Jerry's solo. Needs to be heard.
China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider
Oct. 28, 1979
Cape Cod Coliseum

Bobby's playing and sound in the transition are great. Amusing that he goes into Jerry's "I wish I was..." verse. Jerry's chordal solo at the end is fantastic.

New Haven Coliseum

You have the feeling this is a monster version from the first downbeat and you're not wrong.
The Other One

McNichols Arena

Very dense and dynamic. Great transition out of He's Gone

Phil is great as the comments say but Jerry is the one who is really feeling it in the jam.
