Jack Straw

Spartan Stadium - San Jose State University

Brent's 1st song with the band. Multiple Lesh bombs, rollicking drums, smoking Jerry licks, and impassioned vocals. Fine welcome to the band!

Goin' Down The Road Feelin' Bad
Oct. 16, 1981
Melkweg

This is a lightening fast bowl of nose clams, played 100x the speed of hyperspace. Worth it just to hear how fast the boys ventured to take this on

Oct. 16, 1981
Melkweg

Not the longest, by any stretch, but incredibly airy and beautiful for Bobby's B-day. Worth a listen for sure

Springfield Civic Center

Super interesting jam out of a surprising Truckin' > NFBM jam > Drums > Feeling Groovy jam. The first few min of keys/drum/bass after drums is $$$$

Fox Theatre

Seriously high octane. A very subtle St Stephen lick by Jerry in the closing jam

Black Throated Wind
Nov. 19, 1972
Hofheinz Pavilion

Agree, really sweet version and Jerry puts sufficient stank on his fills, especially before the "left St Louis" lyric
To Lay Me Down
Sept. 26, 1980
Warfield Theater

Soulful as it gets
The Music Never Stopped
May 9, 1977
War Memorial

Peaks for days. Even the devastating drop out on the SBD can't hold this one back
Bertha
May 9, 1977
War Memorial

Very melodic and mellow version. Heady for sure
Big Railroad Blues
June 6, 1991
Deer Creek Music Center

JEEEESUS - Jerry and Bruce make this a complete shredfest.
