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

Candyman

Madison Square Garden

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

My all-time favorite version. Emotional, sexy, and rewarding. Everyone's playing their hearts out, especially Jerry and Vince trading licks all throughout.
Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain
March 22, 1990
Copps Coliseum

Such a full, rewarding, and life-affirming version. Not necessarily my favorite, but probably the one I've listened to the most. It puts me in a good mood every time I hear it...
Death Don't Have No Mercy
Jan. 26, 1969
Avalon Ballroom

Tom Constanten is all over this version and came out to PLAY this show. Love it.
Mexicali Blues
June 20, 1991
Pine Knob Music Theatre

LOVE the instrumental work in this version. Perhaps my favorite version ever.

This one's a scorcher. Jerry's soloing is particularly great.
