Pretty Peggy O

St. Stephen
Jerry starts it alone after hot close encounters jam, but the kicker here is a little melodic jam in the middle unlike anything I've ever heard
83
Terrapin Station
Joined this site to add this version. Really surprised it wasn't on here yet.
59
Not Fade Away
Epic version from a completely insane show. Phil is going down his fret board like crazy in the beginning
38
Close Encounters Jam
A cool spacey Jam, and technically the best version, 'tis the only version.
76
The Other One
Drums built to epic climax and Phil roll that crackles the speakers with intensity
48
The Music Never Stopped
This one just keeps building, and building, until MASSIVE PEAK. All kinds of tension/release

Bertha

Around and Around
Amazing Rockin' Out
22
Cassidy
Stellar version.
53
Tennessee Jed
Awesome interplay between Bob and jerry. This version is sick.

Row Jimmy
Dueling power and uplifting slide guitar action - one of a kind!!
25
New Minglewood Blues
Bobby seems on this whole night, and Jerry's tone is unreal.
15
Samson and Delilah
Smokin little number boosts the second set.
14
U.S. Blues (Wave That Flag)
Smokin' encore. You know the playing was hot when even this is a scorcher.

Ship of Fools
Insane Show

Good Lovin'
Out of a great bertha

Drums
