Listen to the last 3 minutes of the jam before >Drums. Really unique and one of my favorite Brent solos.

Great opener along with the Franklin's. Jerry has some hot licks in this one.

San Francisco Civic Center

Cool drum segment that drifts into a space that is kind of like Ollin Arrageed with Spanish jam licks.

The Same Thing

I love the way they melt into it from PITB.

I never really pay attention to this song but this one caught my ear. Bob's on point and I really like Jerry's tone and solo.

This is a great version. Bob's vocals are on point, great audience participation during the hounds begin to howl part, Jerry shreds. You can hear how palpable the energy is.
Playin' In The Band

Palace Theatre

This one bubbles nicely before a strong psychedelic peak that simmers down into a sultry and jazzy refrain then boils back up to another peak then finds its way to a phenomenal reprise.
The Music Never Stopped
Oct. 21, 1983
Worcester Centrum

This version starts off tentative and Bob forgets most of the lyrics. You're thinking "Yeesh, this version is going to be a mess." Then the midsection jam starts. Great recovery but this version still lacks the steller Jerry peaks that the top notch versions have.
