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.

Jerry's fingers are flying on this version. A+++. Great energy too.
Eyes Of The World

Autzen Stadium

This version seems to have an extra little bit of funkyness and swing to it. Really nice way to open a 2nd set.
Crazy Fingers
Feb. 19, 1991
Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum

Crazy and psychedelic version with a little bit of TOO flavors during the heady jam that drifts off into drums. 20+ minutes.
He's Gone
Sept. 18, 1974
Parc des Expositions

Nice bluesey version that drifts effortlessly into a rocking version of Truckin'.
West L.A. Fadeaway
July 31, 1983
Ventura County Fairgrounds

Focused playing and some good punch on this version.
