Kiel Auditorium
The whole band creates a seamless, burbling groove. (Listen for Phil pushing through the small spaces Bobby leaves.) Mesmerizing.

The Race Is On
Oct. 29, 1973
Kiel Auditorium
The short, country-style numbers sound so good in this set. There's a lot of good music in this show even before the big jams arrive.

Don't Ease Me In
Oct. 29, 1973
Kiel Auditorium
Strong country kicker. Wolf's leads peal out over Keith's barrelhouse piano accompaniment.

Madison Square Garden
Aka Lunatic Preserve. A hair-raising, spontaneous meltdown bridging SOTM and Miracle.

Very substantial jam develops out of the AWBYGN passage before the return to NFA.

I’m on an upvoting spree this first set, which is to say — it’s all so good. Don’t skip any of the short songs on the way to the big jams.
Terrapin Station
Aug. 4, 1982
Kiel Auditorium
This is an exceptionally well-played Terrapin even before they get to the jam. With the jam, this is a reasonable contender for the Top 25. Brent shows off his jazz chops throughout.
Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain
Dec. 3, 1979
Uptown Theatre
Commenting purely on the audio: Anyone checking out this show should hear the Dusborne matrix, which is much livelier and more detailed than the muddy-sounding Dave’s Picks release.
To Lay Me Down
Nov. 20, 1973
Denver Coliseum
Altogether almost faultless, this one climaxes nicely with Jerry’s solo.

Fabulous performance all around!
