Winterland Arena

Buzzing and crackling and just a wee bit manic. Early 1st set and the party is raging. Fun and wild.

Sublime and mysterious. A beauty.

Mama Tried

Fillmore East (Late Show)

Perfect fun, with great organ work and the '70 sound. Pig says, "I'd thank you to not use no dirty words in the public" which cracks me up, too.

Fast and relentless. This one has power behind it.

Deep and dark with strong emotional jams. Lots of great Peters around this time.

Really stellar transitional FGJ.
Eyes Of The World
July 19, 1974
Selland Arena

Whole 2nd set qualifies for one of the top Phil Zone Jam Sets of the era. WRS/LIG>Spanish>Eyes>China Doll. Goddamn, it's good.
Uncle John's Band
Nov. 17, 1973
Pauley Pavilion - University of California

Date, plate, slate, Koweit: Doesn't matter to me, 'cause this show tears the roof off the sucker. May be one of my top 10 shows of all time. Goddamn, it's good.
Uncle John's Band
Dec. 26, 1979
Oakland Auditorium

Shreddingly fast guitar work. Jerry's voice sounds young and fresh. Great version, great second set, great show.
Playin' In The Band
Aug. 24, 1972
Berkeley Community Theatre

Something supremely special with Playing' after Europe '72. Everyone loves Veneta, but don't overlook these peaks from the same week. Always seemed like they pulled it all out just a little bit furthur for the Berkeley crowd.
