U.S. Blues (Wave That Flag)
Dec. 9, 1981
Activity Center - University of Colorado

Part of a nice 1-2 punch encore; the final, high energy rockers really elevate this show.

New Minglewood Blues
April 12, 1978
Cameron Indoor Stadium

Energetic version sandwiched between a KILLER Row Jimmy and an interestingly tempoed Loser.

Ramble On Rose
Dec. 30, 1979
Oakland Auditorium

Nice pace and vocals, almost as rockin' as the (pinnacle) '78 versions, with some Brent keys thrown in.

Brown Eyed Women
Sept. 24, 1972
Palace Theatre

Nifty '72 BEW sets-up a lovely, exploratory PITB...hold on to your hats for set 2, with a criminally underrated top 10 of all-time Dark Star.

It's All Over Now Baby Blue
June 14, 1991
RFK Stadium

Nice encore to a stellar show...with Bruce taking us out on accordian!

Horton Field House - Illinois State University

Yes! That energy at the end, just builds and builds. Fun times, great show! Love me some wild and wooly '78!

Horton Field House - Illinois State University

Also a big fan of the slowed-down versions. I agree...what a first set! Wow!
Stella Blue

Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum

Jerry really slows it down on this one...and it's sublime. Love what everyone is doing behind him too. Very beautfiul, underrated version coming out of The Other One and into Playin' reprise.

Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum Stadium

Love this version. Especially Keith, switching over to what sounds like a Fender Rhodes. These '74-'76 pre-Fire Scarlets are really doing it for me.
