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'

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

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

Folsom Field, University of Colorado

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
Good Morning Little Schoolgirl

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
