Me and My Uncle

Arrowhead Stadium

This is guaranteed to get you on your feet, seriously fast, led by the drumming. As far as MAMU goes this is top drawer.

Scorching version before Willie Nelson, Phil stands out for me on this one

Orpheum Theatre

Beautiful playing, easy to see why this was included on DaP18

Samson and Delilah

Orpheum Theatre

Lacks the familiar opening but Jerry's guitar playing is on fire, with a great contribution from Keith as well. Well worth a listen

Cumberland Blues

Stanley Theatre

Nothing to say that hasn’t been said already, this absolutely SMOKES!
The Music Never Stopped
Dec. 28, 1979
Oakland Auditorium

Just have to comment again about how this should be top 5 comfortably, even top 3 - only versions rivalling this are 4/24/78 and 2/3/78. Raw energy, keeps me coming back for more

Swing Auditorium

Lawdy, 5*
Truckin'
May 17, 1974
P.N.E. Coliseum

Yes this is one of the worst vocal mishaps I've ever heard (and that's saying something with this song!) but goes places afterwards and only adds to the uniqueness for me. End jam is great
Deal
May 21, 1974
Edmundson Pavilion

This deal went down. One of the best early Deals I've heard
