Capitol Center

A bit overlooked for summer '74, this version is one of the very best. Jerry's cool tone has a lot of bite!

First ever SJ, and possibly my new favorite! This incredible jam just keeps building and does not let up once for the entire 16 minutes!

Playin' In The Band
May 21, 1974
Edmundson Pavilion

I dig this one a lot. I don't think it's the best Playin' despite its length, but there are some awesome segments that will definitely keep me coming back. The jamming right around the 30 min. mark, for example, is especially wicked!

Rossevelt Stadium

Jerry's tone is very crunchy and distorted at times...he repeats a wild Main Ten-like figure during the jam that gets really intense. Love it!
