Beat it on Down The Line
Dec. 6, 1973
Public Hall

Train rippin' down the hot coals of the 1973 track.

Drums
April 12, 1978
Cameron Indoor Stadium

Can't believe I'm submitting this. Long and fun drum circle that's notable because our Jer Bear whips out a steel pan and joins in.

It Must Have Been The Roses
Oct. 31, 1990
Wembley Arena

Jerry tearing the standards book asunder with this elegant poetic brilliance

Big River
Oct. 31, 1990
Wembley Arena

For a few minutes wembley in '90 becomes the fillmore in the summer of 1970, the way the Dead just slide into a no-nonsense Big River. Shivers

Loose Lucy
Oct. 31, 1990
Wembley Arena

Smokin' and refined version of this deep cut, on "All Hallow's Eve" as a chap might say

Blow Away
Sept. 29, 1989
Shoreline Amphitheatre

Slinky and sermonlike.
China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider
Sept. 29, 1989
Shoreline Amphitheatre

Totally mammoth china rider from a really out there gig.
We Can Run
Sept. 29, 1989
Shoreline Amphitheatre

Damn I love that hell-or-high-water bawling controlled tenor of Brent Mydland. Burning cut from the shooting star of him
Stuck Inside of Mobile with the Memphis Blues Again
Sept. 29, 1989
Shoreline Amphitheatre

A side note, as with so many tomes of that bard and poet of the soul's misanthropic landscape, observer of the plight and vice in worldly society, Bob Dylan, it's a feat to remember all those words on our ol' bobby's part and he sounds great
Franklin's Tower
Sept. 29, 1989
Shoreline Amphitheatre

What to say about Franklin's Tower.... a tune that feels like comin' home but yet with a wary eye behind you, never knowing what's gonna happen. "Some come to laugh their past away, some come to make it just another day". Chill exploration on those uber-classic chord changes and impassioned delivery from Brent and Jerry on this.
