Jerry's having a great night, and check our Brent in the segue to Eyes!

Keith (and everybody) is so on point in this twangy humdinger.

It's a great little tune when they play it like they did in summer '73.

Goin' Down The Road Feelin' Bad

Auditorium Theatre

It should be noted that the version on the box set is from 6/8/77, as the 5/13 tape is damaged at this point. The Archive links are truly 5/13, however.

It’s not an exaggeration to say that this was one of the best songs in their repertoire around the time of this version.

What a journey! At first deft and delicate, then thick and swinging ... and of course there's a classic '72 space freakout. Highly recommended.

Wow, where did that come from? A unique jam makes for one of the coolest NFAs of the decade.

Jerry switches to slide after several verses, followed shortly by a smoooth segue to Walkin’ Blues. Cool and different.
