Good lush midi cassidy into this speedmeister jaunty shuffler. Bruce and weir aim high. Inspired smooth flow. Propulsive coda. Zoo wee mama!

Pretty Peggy O

Boston Garden

Another gorgeous headlong peggy for caves and knolls, formidable 90's new age orb head textures. Rosebud arpeggiation takes off gloriously in solos.

intensely hot pan seared Bruce version. Five alarm chaw with thematic accompaniment and hootenany feelings

The Wheel

Beacon Theatre

bound to cover just a little more ground, for only 3rd time, chunky and dancing version, powerful
Help On The Way > Slipknot > Franklin's Tower
June 14, 1976
Beacon Theatre

The approach to this trifecta as a victory lap rather than a bust out of the gate yields an arguably even more rewarding version of the composition. Slip is not a melter so much as a slow burn...

Lazy Lightnin' -> Supplication
June 14, 1976
Beacon Theatre

rippling and full of alignment, just shredding
Playin' In The Band
June 14, 1976
Beacon Theatre

For sure under-voted, it's playing in the band and they go crazy on this one. Returning to the D modal jam from craziness, you can start to see why this is Keith Godchaux's "catatonic" phase, his Rhodes playing doesn't take us as far as say, a Dark Star from two years prior would. But it's still nasty and great. Iconic Donna wail coming back around. One of those PITB's that'll take you through several distinct cycles of mood
