Greatest Story Ever Told

Henry J. Kaiser Convention Center

Solid version of this tune. Less of a trainwreck when played later in the set it seems.

First great post-coma moment. Phil is unbelievable throughout. Jerry's in it to win it. Check the SBD.

Rowdy, spirited version. Jerry not quite done with it when everyone else is.

Uptown Theater

This is a great one, with Jerry and Phil inspired throughout, and a jam into Stella no less
Big River

Selland Arena

Jerry takes this Big River by the throat.
Mississippi Halfstep Uptown Toodeloo

Arlington Theater

Phil is great on this and I love how Jerry holds back and takes his time on the solos, waiting for something to happen. Burning fire at the end too.

Phil is incredible in the second solo.
Let It Grow
Jan. 7, 1978
Golden Hall

Jerry roars at the laryngitis show.
