Touch of Grey
Sept. 17, 1982
Cumberland County Civic Center
Holy smokes, people!!! Insanely heady early version entirely destroyed my concept of what Touch of Grey is, or could be. Almost has a '74 swing to it, and great vocals. Entire show is super heady, the boys sure loved Maine.

Serious Phil-bombing on this one.

Gotta love a stunningly heady entrance after the introduction. The Boys mean business on this one.

A mind-melting DTR in its own right.
Viola Lee Blues

Avalon Ballroom
2nd documented version. Such a mystical groove right before the last verse. They absolutely nail the timing coming back into the bridge. The rhythm section is as steady and heavy as a billion-ton freight train. Notably less off the rails and more groovy than later versions.
