Sugar Magnolia
April 11, 1978
Fox Theatre

Really melodic jam, which builds incrementally in velocity and intensity - then, screaming sunshine daydream

Cassidy
May 16, 1978
Uptown Theater

Very heady jam segment in this one. Show is a sleeper from May

Cassidy

Providence Civic Center

The latter half of a great on-two punch to kick off the show (1/2 step preceding), this Cassidy is an absolute bute. Bob/Jer communication is tight

Boston Garden

Jerry rips a sick intro solo. Hyped up energy

Feel Like A Stranger

Boston Garden

The 'butt sweat' meter is off the charts for this. Great Brent work and killer peak

This one SLAPS. Jerry is lightening quick and deadly accurate. Superb

Jed is far from my song, but spun this back for the ann’y and oooof, shit, this one SLAPS. Big Jerry energy... crisp, tight heater
He's Gone

Folsom Field, University of Colorado

Gorgeous, with an amazing swell at the end and a flawless transition into a monster TOO. Top shelf

Shrine Auditorium

Holy f*ck!! Phil hits an absolute moonshot with this. Completely takes over and guides the band into a purely blissful jam
Good Morning Little Schoolgirl

Shrine Auditorium

I love the pacing in this. No rush, band is patient and offering turns for each other to shine. Always been a top version, personally. Dusted off again today and still a sweet moseying bluesy dander. Love it
