Playin' In The Band
Nov. 24, 1972
Dallas Memorial Auditorium

Wow, seemingly a very overlooked gem. Tension and release, weaving effortlessly from mellow jam segments to soaring peaks, without screechy breakdown

Jahrhunderthalle

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

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

This first set is the fucking balls and this TMNS is a perfect, peaky cap to a hot opener

This came on during a walk home through the cold rain yesterday and made me smile. Its a smoker, taboot
Uncle John's Band
Oct. 12, 1984
Augusta Civic Center

Should be curated by Neil Degrasse Tyson. Super heady exploration of the cosmos, with a very nimble and shiny run through the verses preceding it. Interesting the 2nd set getting so much love (very well deserved, for sure), but the first set is an absolute scorcher as well, as mentioned earlier. Amongst the top shows of the year, easily
Candyman

Deer Creek Music Center

This one really hits the spot. Juicy runs up the neck from Jerry. Poignant vocals. Dig it
