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.

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.

Morning Dew
Nov. 8, 1979
Capitol Center

After a slow poke NFA, Phil makes the segue into this Dew interesting and keeps it up with the bombs throughout. This is a pretty good Dew that is worth a few listens.

A very slow and plodding version. Phil does his best to make the segue into Morning Dew interesting though.
Shakedown Street

New Haven Coliseum

The buildup that starts about 11:30 in, is what makes this version really stand-out. Such high-energy funky gooiness.

This version has a nice edgy swing to it. Real nice peak too.
Uncle John's Band

Hartford Civic Center

This version is awesome and unique! Unusually comes out of space then segues fantastically into NFA.
