Funky version slathered in Fender Rhodes gets an incendiary Jerry solo.

Ominous dark synth lead-in to a great Other One.

Cardinal Stadium

Wow, everyone’s playing the hell out of this Sugaree! The band is clearly ON.

Uptown Theater

These long freaky Drumses from ’78 are really compelling. The band must have felt so too, since Drums>Space, uh, stuck around!

California State University Dominguez Hills

Jerry's solo is on point, really precise and eloquent.

Black Throated Wind

Winterland Arena

I’m not sure if this is *Bobby’s* best BTW — probably not — but it might be Jerry’s best BTW.
Mississippi Halfstep Uptown Toodeloo
Oct. 17, 1974
Winterland Arena

Titanic version, somehow ranked third among versions from this run. Well worth checking out.
Greatest Story Ever Told
Sept. 12, 1981
Greek Theater

What a thing hearing GSET this vividly rendered, undimmed by the 10 years since its debut.
Althea

Cumberland County Civic Center

This show needs more love. Fantastic playing and *big* peaks here.
Brokedown Palace
Dec. 10, 1973
Charlotte Coliseum

One of the best.
