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

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.

Feel Like A Stranger
Nov. 10, 1985
Meadowlands Arena

As in most of this set, the playing is really hot and really fast. It’s not really a set for subtle communication and expressiveness, but it’s a great one for sweaty, slightly uncoordinated energy. I enjoyed it.
I Need A Miracle
Dec. 17, 1978
Fox Theatre

*Joani, sheesh.
Jack Straw
July 7, 1978
Red Rocks Amphitheatre

*Serious* firepower, vocally as well as instrumentally. Check this out, folks.
Let It Grow
Oct. 2, 1977
Paramount Theatre

Very exploratory in parts! I can’t think of many late-’70s versions that are this adventurous.
Estimated Prophet
Nov. 4, 1979
Civic Center

Even by the standards of ’79, this is a *great* Estimated. Enjoy.
