It's All Over Now Baby Blue
June 27, 1969
Veterans Auditorium

Slow, long version of Baby Blue. Jerry's voice is sweet and the organ adds nice texture

Flurry of activity. Bob and Jerry are screaming their lungs out at the end of this one

Franklin's Tower

Uptown Theater

This is a true highlight of the new DP release. Band clicks during this Frank and the following jam has wonderful interplay between Jerry and Brent.
Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain
Dec. 3, 1979
Uptown Theatre

I have a bit of a different take on this. I was super excited for the new DP release, as I personally love '79, especially Nov-Dec. I found this version really sluggish and lacking spark. The Scarlett was approached with near reluctance and Bobby's slide offers little to the supportive structure. The Fire picks up, but has devastating audio cuts that take you out of the momentum the band was gaining. I'll obviously spin again, many times, but was relatively underwhelmed following Lemieux talking this up so hard in the seaside chat.
Eyes Of The World

Hampton Coliseum

Jerry and Brent get lock step early in this magnificent version. Peppy rendition for the first time in the mothership
The Weight

RIP Brent. His final lyrics are tear jerking in context
Cumberland Blues

Alpine Valley Music Theatre

Brent playing like he’s possessed. His link up with Jerry is positively electric. Crusher of a version
