Alpine Valley Music Theatre

In this notoriously shaky year there are often gems to be found among the train wreckage. This BEW is an example. Jerry's solo is spot on

Charlotte Coliseum

Jerry works very hard to put this one over the top. Check out his last solo

Hartford Civic Center

They almost never got this song right, so it's no wonder they stopped playing it. This time they did. Bobby doesn't oversing, drummers are on it.

Eyes Of The World
Jan. 30, 1978
Uptown Theater

This is a great one, with Jerry and Phil inspired throughout, and a jam into Stella no less
Big River
Jan. 15, 1978
Selland Arena

Jerry takes this Big River by the throat.
Mississippi Halfstep Uptown Toodeloo
Jan. 13, 1978
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.

Golden Hall

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

Jerry roars at the laryngitis show.
