Touch of Grey

Shoreline Amphitheatre

Part of a rare double encore, this version has great energy and bounce. The Brokedown to follow is nice as well. Check out the Oade Brothers AUD.

He's Gone

Seattle Center Coliseum

Really cool pre-drums jam in this version. Almost sounds like they are about to go into I Know You Rider.

The Scope

It's a fine version and all but the cool little Jerry noodle just before Drums is the real reason to seek this version out.

Really nice groove out of drums. Chill version but in a good way.

Lyrics are flubbed but that final solo has some hot licks.
Lazy Lightnin' -> Supplication

The Supplication is great! Jerry really shreds it.
Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain
Dec. 3, 1979
Uptown Theatre

This version from the Dave's Picks vol. 31 barely registers on the list. As said above it's a nice chill listen with some good groove to it. I can easily see why this version gets lost in the realm of the other great ones from '79 though.

This version is near perfect. Both Jerry and Brent have excellent solos and the band is melding quite well.
Terrapin Station

Deer Creek Music Theater

A nice version of Terrapin. It's the pre-drums jam that makes this one worth the listen.
