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.

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.

Great Scarlet, but the rails seem to come off the tracks during FOTM. Jerry and the band seem lost in this one. Plenty of missed lyrics and vocal flubs abound. Jerry pulls it together towards the end during the final guitar solo. . .somewhat.

Seek this version out now! Authoritative and intense. This may be my new favorite version of this song. The jam that starts around the 7 minute mark is spectacular.

Really nice version, with a great peak.
They Love Each Other

Civic Center

This version has a great bounce to it.

This one rages just as good as any version from '77. Drops into a nice IMHBTR.
