I am always on the search for top notch Cassidys' and this one really checks all the right boxes. The mid song jam is en fuego

Tight and focused, only 8 minutes but for 8 minutes it covers a lot of ground.

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.
Not Fade Away

Capitol Center

A very slow and plodding version. Phil does his best to make the segue into Morning Dew interesting though.
Shakedown Street
Oct. 25, 1979
New Haven Coliseum

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

Selland Arena

This version has a nice edgy swing to it. Real nice peak too.
Uncle John's Band
April 17, 1982
Hartford Civic Center

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