Edmundson Pavilion

Jerry's voice is crisp, his playing is sharp, and Keith does a great job with atmospheric organ fills

Doin' That Rag

Fillmore East

An extra handful of stank on the end jam puts this well above a "normal" version. Definitely worth checking out

Not the longest version (due to time restraints), but this one starts like it is shot out of a fucking cannon

A short, incredibly dense, and interesting piece of space

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

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

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

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
