Samson and Delilah
April 26, 1977
Capitol Theater
Not just a straightforward rocker. Keith adds an icy contrast to Jerry’s fire while the drummers up the tension.

Greek Theater
Sparkling version. Worth your attention as you savor the perfect Oade AUD.

Let It Grow
June 14, 1985

Spectacular depth, detail, and feeling. Drummers drive the transitions, while Jerry offers cool rhythmic variations.

China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider
Dec. 5, 1969
Fillmore West
Exploratory transition jam! Very different from most early versions. Has that anarchic ’60s energy.

Looks Like Rain

Greek Theatre - University of California
Brent's clever accompaniment helps the ending jam levitate and glide.

Greek Theatre, U. Of California
This version has IT.
Bird Song

The new Seamons matrix sounds perfect. Let the sound wash over you …
Deal
Feb. 26, 1977
Swing Auditorium
Kicks so much ass. I won’t call you crazy if you prefer the pre-retirement Deals, but if you don’t, this might be The One.
Mama Tried
Feb. 26, 1977
Swing Auditorium
One of those performances where you can hear how much they loved this song and how fun it is to play and sing.
