Warfield Theater

Hot outro resolves into a brief contemplative space before yielding to Drums.

Nassau Coliseum

Sparkling, energetic version. The first set of the Nassau run is a great one!

Its All Over Now

Winterland Arena

Grooves smartly with excellent contributions from each member. The whole first set is hot and worth a listen.

Jerry and Donna sound great in this uptempo version. Jerry's solo smokes too, of course.

The Spectrum

Sweet bluesy outro jam. Spring ’78 was very good to poor Peter.

Truckin'
May 20, 1973
U.C.

Intense swing, almost like a version from a year later. Hard to believe all that Truckin’ > Other One fits into a comparatively modest 31-minute package.
Shakedown Street
April 11, 1989
Rosemont Horizon

As if hypnotized by the groove, the band brings the jam down to a quiet plane before ratcheting up for the conclusion.
Samson and Delilah
Sept. 22, 1991
Boston Garden

I really like the dual keyboard action in this one. While Bruce is pure Old Dominion roll, Vince rocks, sounding agreeably like Garth Hudson. Good showcase for the era.
Estimated Prophet
July 22, 1990
World Music Theater

The midsong jam in G didn’t do much for me, but the outro is the best kind of midified chaos.
Goin' Down The Road Feelin' Bad
Sept. 4, 1980
Providence Civic Center

Whoa.
