Man does this version have a good bounce to it. I would put this version up against any version from the 80's.

This version doesn't quit. Jerry's solo is relentless

Check out the really groovy pre-drums jam that comes out of this UJB.

Great swing to this version. Excellent Brent and Jerry solos. A gem of a show from an odd tour.

Morning Dew

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.
