Lazy Lightnin' -> Supplication

Omaha Civic Auditorium

riotous, expansive, and devastating. Insanely tight rendition
They Love Each Other
July 5, 1978
Omaha Civic Auditorium

greasy charged up and shit hot
Sugaree

Omaha Civic Auditorium

Sonorous twinkly supercharged midwest love with train schedule predicting pockets, per Knight/Egert/Mccabe source
Playin' In The Band
Oct. 28, 1979
Cape Cod Coliseum

a tender, reactive, pastoral expanse of kind sound. brent contributes a lot. He relinquishes downbeat control to cowboy shenanigans from jerry and phil which get the whole thing ready to spider dance. quite a patient build. Every note is in place. Shows' also got a white water raft race of a Half step>Franklin's and a kind gorgeous Ramble>Music.
Ship of Fools
Oct. 28, 1979
Cape Cod Coliseum

nice n easy. First ship sunk and drowned from rocking of the heads
