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

You Win Again
April 26, 1972
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

Really dig the 1-2 min jam into Playin’. Some interesting stuff going on
Eyes Of The World
July 14, 1990
Foxboro Stadium

Great eyes. Phil and Jerry driving hard in 2nd to last jam so nicely, both throwing down their lines and gelling.
