Tender, soothing, perfect. Brimming with firecracker... jerry rips a mean fret-flyer or two

down to business in the mines of emotion. Tight and incredible. A gem of a intuitive version with lots of rootsy charisma and swingin' euphoria..

Slow and serious. Mickey is masterful as is the overall tone control.Solo could have had more satisfying crescendo, fun lowkey set 1 vibe

gobsmackingly propulsive, stands with the best, most fluid and excitingly spritely stranger jams. Must-hear.

Not Fade Away

Fillmore East (Late Show)

crunchy and heavy NFA, pigpen organ fanning, they're locked in as hell on this. Sounds like this whole show is a must check out
The Other One

Rec Hall, Penn State U

monster 1980 version, fluid as hell. Brent sounds incredible, as do Billy and Mickey. they've really got the four-armed beast thing down pat on this. Nice and patient Other One, pairs well with a bong rip or two. really surprised this only has 6 votes, the jam goes the distance
