Playin' In The Band

Dallas Memorial Auditorium

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

Deal
Dec. 13, 1980
Long Beach Arena

This Deal smokes. Jerry lighting up the leads as they hit the peak. Early inklings of 89/90 thrillers. This is a must hear
Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain

Long Beach Arena

My. God. Jerry is strenuously attentive and delivers superb licks through out this juggernaut S>F. Push this gem up the LIST!

Nashville Municipal Auditorium

Like others, not a massive TJ fan, but was in Nashville and a spin felt obligatory. This one is a crusher - band is tight and Jer puts the hammer DOWN on the leads. Very enjoyable version and yeah, they def brought it in Nash during an already iconic month in dead history
New Minglewood Blues
April 22, 1978
Nashville Municipal Auditorium

Powerhouse energetic and Bobby legitimately snarling and growling in full force. Killllllller
