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!

The Other One
Dec. 9, 1981
Activity Center - University of Colorado

Real nice stabbing, jazzy organ work by Brent about 5 min into this one, and he keeps piling on inspired flurries...I actually didn't mind the patch so much either.
Estimated Prophet

Activity Center - University of Colorado

This version, like the whole show, just gets better and better with each listen!
Black Peter

Boise Pavilion - Boise State University

Jerry passionately pluckin' away like he does all show, and in his best '83 and '84 moments.Lively. Emotional. Heady,
Friend of the Devil

Capitol Theater

Gorgeous and mellow. That liquidy Jerry guitar melts me.
