Goin' Down The Road Feelin' Bad

Providence Civic Center

Nice mellow version. It had become somewhat rare in 78-79 so I'm surprised this isn't listed. Give it a listen.

Nice slower version. Jerry solo and band improv a little different than usual.

Family Dog at the Great Highway

Very cool, has the sax and violin sit ins like DS and TOO. Are those instruments ever featured on this song outside of this?

Family Dog at the Great Highway

Can't believe this only has 5 votes. Is there any other TOO with a sax and violin? How unique.

This sax and violin make this amazing, should be rated much higher. I like this much better than the Branford versions of DS!

This is great, sounds like it's out of the 70s with Jerry playing fast. This is underrated, no SBD in circulation.

Never heard Fire end quite like this one.
