Sugar Magnolia
April 11, 1978
Fox Theatre

Really melodic jam, which builds incrementally in velocity and intensity - then, screaming sunshine daydream

Uptown Theater

Very heady jam segment in this one. Show is a sleeper from May

Providence Civic Center

The latter half of a great on-two punch to kick off the show (1/2 step preceding), this Cassidy is an absolute bute. Bob/Jer communication is tight

Jerry rips a sick intro solo. Hyped up energy

Boston Garden

The 'butt sweat' meter is off the charts for this. Great Brent work and killer peak

The Matrix

Oakland Auditorium Arena

Wow, not a note wasted on this S>F! Tight, though exploratory, the Scarlet delivers everything one could hope for in a rollicking rendition, and the Fire pushes this one well over the top. Very choice. From my perspective, '80 and '76 are consistently the most overlooked years for the boys (though i am uncertain as to 'why'). Glad i stumbled on this - prop glynparson!

Bordering on frantic energy. Urgent, densely wound, tizzy of a Cassidy
