Playin' In The Band
Nov. 24, 1972
Dallas Memorial Auditorium

Wow, seemingly a very overlooked gem. Tension and release, weaving effortlessly from mellow jam segments to soaring peaks, without screechy breakdown

Jahrhunderthalle

Moseying version. Jerry lays down buttery licks and Keith rides some nice fills. Zippidy doo dah tuning jam to follow

Saint of Circumstance

Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum

Great Saint, though the goods are in the MLB > Dear Prudence jam that follows. I can only imagine the level of blue balls in the house for that tease

I always liked this version. The boys gel together nicely for a peaky crescendo

Really crisp, Jerry is on fire and Hornsby paints some nice scenery. Great version!

This one pops so nicely. Band in crisp form, Garcia shining brightly throughout!
Weather Report Suite
March 26, 1973
Baltimore Civic Center

This show overall is exceptional, and this jam puts it into the stratosphere. Inventive, patient, purposeful jamming - truly singular in its sound. The band is connected and inspired. Cannot recommend this jam enough!
Good Lovin'
April 13, 1971
Catholic Youth Center

Phil creates a DEEP pocket pre-Pig rap and he, Jerry, and Bobby emerge as a three-headed monster of groove. Post-rap, Jerry takes over on driving the jam with a hypnotic pattern the rest of the band latches onto. Great jam!
Scarlet Begonias
April 27, 1985
Frost Amphitheatre

This show is such a treat. Jam has tight staccato style like the clicking of a dial. Chunky goodness
