Moseying version. Jerry lays down buttery licks and Keith rides some nice fills. Zippidy doo dah tuning jam to follow

Saint of Circumstance

Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum

Great Saint, though the goods are in the MLB > Dear Prudence jam that follows. I can only imagine the level of blue balls in the house for that tease

I always liked this version. The boys gel together nicely for a peaky crescendo

Freight train of energy

Jerry's voice is crisp, his playing is sharp, and Keith does a great job with atmospheric organ fills

Eyes Of The World
June 14, 1980
Spokane Coliseum

Played at 5x the speed of lightening, this one still has legs and melody for a 12 min version. Nimble throughout, though almost dizzyingly rapid and immediate.
Feel Like A Stranger
Dec. 13, 1980
Long Beach Arena

Gross. I'm sweaty and all I did was listen. Funk disco dead kills
The Music Never Stopped
Feb. 26, 1981
Uptown Theater

Pretty solid interlude jam and thrilling peak to end the set.
West L.A. Fadeaway
Sept. 17, 1982
Cumberland County Civic Center

This one is gully, in all of the right ways. Gritty and passionate
New Minglewood Blues
Dec. 13, 1980
Long Beach Arena

Some nice raunchy blues. Worthy of a spin for sure
