One More Saturday Night
June 23, 1990
Autzen Stadium

A good one played on a Saturday night. Kicks into gear in the second half. Brent's organ is stellar, and Jerry's midi textures add flavor to the mix

Not Fade Away
Sept. 21, 1982
Madison Square Garden

Fiery, with loads of Brent organ and a tight jam. Everyone's totally locked into the groove.

Me and My Uncle
Oct. 11, 1983
Madison Square Garden

Big energy, a good Jerry solo, no lyrical flubs, and transitions into a hot Mexicali Blues. What else could you ask for?

Dupree's Diamond Blues
Sept. 20, 1982
Madison Square Garden

Is there a single version of Dupree's that DOESN'T put a smile on your face? This one's a ton of fun, and a big highlight of an under-appreciated show

Madison Square Garden

Brent's piano is a major factor in this hot version. Tempo is just exactly perfect.

FANTASTIC! How this one doesn't have more votes is beyond me.
Dupree's Diamond Blues

Madison Square Garden

What's even odder is that this excellent version wasn't even listed on this site when the show was announced as an official release. I couldn't believe no one had submitted it before I did!

A bot??? Really? Never thought I’d live to see the day that Heady Version would have that problem. But…here we are, I guess.

…imagine getting THIS upset at other people liking a version that you don’t like. C’mon, man. Cool it.

Nice version from a good show in an underwhelming year. A big highlight of the first set.
