Stayin' Alive teases carried over from Me and My Uncle. Ballsy version

Me and My Uncle

Horton Field House - Illinois State University

Stayin' Alive tease to open and significant teases by Keith throughout. Most interesting version by far - (teases continue into a romping Big River)

Truckin'
May 9, 1979
Broome County Arena

Gigantic early peak, followed by high energy band interplay, concluded with some jacked up speedy noodling. Hard to ask for more

Broome County Arena

End jam has some of the best Bobby/Jerry interplay I can recall - truly incredible. Leads into a heart stopping Truckin'. Peep it

Very nice full band peak on this. Brent rips. Great way to open a show!
Samson and Delilah

Knickerbocker Arena

CHURCH! Brent lays into the jam nicely
Bird Song
March 25, 1990
Knickerbocker Arena

Great spacey jam in this one. Really dug it, save for a minute or two of MIDI flute. Solid version for sure
Eyes Of The World

Knickerbocker Arena

Agree on all accounts. The slower, swinging tempo harkens to early 70's versions. Flows very nicely
Greatest Story Ever Told

War Memorial

I may be crazy, but it sounds like Jerry is hinting at St Stephen licks during the peak
