To Lay Me Down

Bobby accidentally tries to bring it back into the chorus at the end, some heated bickering between him and Phil? Brent "Everybody makes mistakes!"

How is this not on here yet!? Comes right out of a gorgeous space, 1000 MPH Brent laying on the hammond, Jerry shredding, NFA claps to carry you along

Civic Arena

A fiesty Sugar Mags...with HORNS?!? The band is firing on all cylinders for this one. The September '73 horns tour is so so so underrated

This one slowly chugs with a feeling of impending doom with the story

Bluesy and rockin'
Friend of the Devil

I must be a stranger to late 74 FOTD's but this groove is sick!
Hard to Handle
April 21, 1971
Rhode Island Auditorium

This really REALLY rips. Agreed ^ the recording quality is really stellar. Pig is HOT, Phil is chunky and phat, Bobby takes a solo that's fast and tight, and Jerry comes in and takes it away, shredding it up. This is a must listen
Dark Star

Fox Theatre

First DS without TC I believe? Him missing leaves a little bit of a whole in this one, but ironically TOTALLY adds to the ambience and quiet parts of the jam. Spooky.
