Playin' In The Band

Cow Palace

Just need to make a small correction to mannishjoy... Those are not three consecutive PITBs because it was also in the 2/26/77 show (albeit with The Wheel inserted in the middle). Maybe the best four consecutive PITBs though? The 2/26 is no slouch!

I consider all three ballads on this night - Looks Like Rain, It Must Have Been the Roses, and Ship of Fools - to be very well done and interesting, all worth a listen.

Everyone's getting rowdy on the vocals on this one! Fun version for sure.

The "Me and My Uncle" leading into it has good energy too.

This does not sound like 1978 to me. Beautiful! And don't get me wrong, I love some '78, but I think it's fair to say it's not generally a delicate sounding year haha. The "It Must Have Been the Roses" that follows is a really nice one too.
