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

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

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

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 $$$$

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

Usually kind of a skip song for me, but this one delivers!

Oakland Auditorium

Jerry and Brent go lick for lick, then Jerry takes over and brings the jam home. Hell of a way to start a new years show!
New Minglewood Blues

Oakland Auditorium

Bad ass version
Greatest Story Ever Told
Sept. 28, 1972
Stanley Theatre

Wow, haven't heard this in a while - still amazing! St Stephen jamming throws this one into the stratosphere
