Winterland Arena

Keith's fills really stand out. More of an elastic bouncy version than leaden thumping one.

Jerry and Bruce tear it up. Check out the sweet matrix!

Played and sung like they really mean it. This one's got that "X factor."

Cumberland Blues
Nov. 17, 1972
Century II Convention Hall

Sounds like Jerry quotes some recognizable (famous) bluegrass licks in this one. Sorry, can't ID the song.
Me and My Uncle
Nov. 17, 1972
Century II Convention Hall

Folks... this is quite a Me & My Uncle.
Caution
Oct. 20, 1968
Greek Theatre - University of California

Holy fuck! This is nuts! Absolutely raging '68 firestorm of a Caution.
Turn On Your Love Light
Oct. 20, 1968
Greek Theatre - University of California

Not better than the best of '69-'71, but this one sure shreds in places.
Turn On Your Love Light
March 29, 1990
Nassau Coliseum

Vastly more interesting than the majority of latter-day Lovelights.
