Winterland Arena

Not on the list, but hidden in an unfortunately cut Easy Wind. Tinny recording but killer, fast, and furious jamming.

Legion Stadium

Soulful pure blues. This is an intimate, informal show. It ain't slick, and that's just fine.

Only 2 months old, and 22nd time: They were working hard on it, and you can hear the explosive potential. Manic warbler mode, Main 10 at the surface.

Tight simmering burner here, with nice Bobby/Jerry mix levels. Pig on organ is a little lost, so try headphones for some fun.

Starts simple and grows into a triumph. Can't help but think these meant a lot to the boys right after JJ's passing. Beautiful.

A great DS in the middle of a a stellar 2nd set. So kind to your mind! One of my favourite's shows from 1972, often overlooked coming after the well-known (and brilliant) August shows.

This is my go-to Playin' when I need weirdness.
