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

Me and My Uncle
April 24, 1978
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

He's Gone
May 9, 1979
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

Not Fade Away

Adams Field House, U of Montana

Definitely cranks. Some muddy buttsweat gully funk treats, doled out in abun-dance. Lesh sounds F'n GORGEOUS on the new SBD release
China Doll

Adams Field House, U of Montana

Could turn any steely exterior into an emotive pile of love goo
Black Throated Wind
May 14, 1974
Adams Field House, U of Montana

Nice, mellow version. It doesn't have the explosive Bobby chaw at the end, but it comes together well for a pleasant finish

Adams Field House, U of Montana

Good call on Keith with the B3 - you can really hear it more clearly on the new SBDs. Definitely gives it an eerie feel
