Dancin' in the Streets

Golden Hall

Jerry has laryngitis, so he speaks with his hands. Starts as a buttsweat dancefest. Long jam that eventually quiets to a whisper before wrapping up

This one is tricky, because the whole band is clicking and Jerry is undeniably crushing it with fiery leads up the fret board. However, Bobby's slide is so distracting to me and takes me out of those "it" moments.

Jerry initiates his leads with absolutely spine tingling, delicate flutters, then builds the peak to cathartic explosion. Gorgeous
Deal

Hofheinz Pavilion

Smoking early version of Deal. Not the face shredding '89-'90 variety, but a hot little potato all the same

Hofheinz Pavilion

My favorite of the early 70s. Long, airy, flowing, and beautiful. A true highlight of the Houston '72 release. Digs deep with soul

“But this version goes to 11” - shit cranks and gets to the peak fast...
