A little extra mustard on this one.

Me and Bobby McGee

Winterland Arena

Uniquely satisfying. Bob and Keith lock into a mind-meld that leads Jerry in some interesting directions.

Jack Straw

Memorial Coliseum

Unique, trippy energy on the intro. Mellow vibes throughout.

Beat it on Down The Line
April 2, 1973
Boston Garden

Tight, inspired, and full of ideas. A stand-out version from a stand-out show.

Sugar Magnolia

The Spectrum

Tight, hard-driving, and full of energy. A great rave up after some thoughtful somber passages before.

Sugaree

New Haven Coliseum

As slammin' as Jerry's main solo is, the final break features some gorgeous, subtle Bob-Jerry interplay that absolutely can't be missed. Stunning version.
Wharf Rat
April 25, 1977
Capitol Theater

For my money, this is best-jammed Wharf Rat there is.
The Music Never Stopped
April 25, 1977
Capitol Theater

I dig what Keith is throwing down alongside Bob's Descending chord progression on the big jam.
They Love Each Other
April 25, 1977
Capitol Theater

This one's a little raunchy.
Tennessee Jed
Feb. 26, 1977
Swing Auditorium

Smokin hot! Anyone who complains about Jed being a snoozer will be eating their words after hearing this version.
