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!

Dark Star
Sept. 24, 1972
Palace Theatre

A tremendous version which has no business being this low in the rankings.
Bird Song
March 20, 1992
Copps Coliseum

Bruce and Phil make this extra special. Phil is so clear and up in the mix and dialed-in for this whole show.
Maggie's Farm
March 20, 1992
Copps Coliseum

Show really comes to life for me here. Kicks into overdrive with Bird Song, then real nice second set from Shakedown all the way through.
Standing On The Moon
March 20, 1992
Copps Coliseum

Yes! Great final solo and engaged singing.
Man Smart, Woman Smarter
March 20, 1992
Copps Coliseum

Accordion! MIDI! Fun for all!
