Not really my song, but this is a nice version. Jerry rips a tight little solo at the end

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

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

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
