Love Jerry's decending notes at the end. Excellent version, as is par for the tour

Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain

Uptown Theater

The Scarlett from this is really nice. Loose, airy, flowing jamming
Dancin' in the Streets
April 14, 1978
Cassell Coliseum - Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University

If you are a fan of huge funk jams and intense butt-sweat boogie, this is the Dancin' for you. Monster, at 17+ min.
Candyman

The Spectrum

Jerry's noodles make this an exceptional version. Very sweet
Mississippi Halfstep Uptown Toodeloo
May 14, 1978
Providence Civic Center

Really triumphant, powerful, but patient (as noted) way to kick off a great show. The one-two punch of 1/2 Step > Cassidy is killer. Been on respin a lot.
Cumberland Blues
March 28, 1973
Civic Center

Jerry comes out of the gates swinging with this. Notable "extended" jam, with a bit of extra sauce to satiate eager fans. The noodling is top shelf - top tier version! Not usually a "go-to" song for me, but i keep going back and spinning this when i visit this stellar show
