Serious giddyup.

Greatest Story Ever Told
Sept. 16, 1972
Boston Music Hall
Streaks across the sky like a comet. Choose the SBD version, you won't regret it. Bobby and Donny are totally on together.

Really needs a cleanup, or some miracle tapes to clear the sound on this little gem. They were on. Where's the rest of the SB?

Listen through the murky AUD and you'll find a powerhouse version that clearly blew the doors off. Crowd energy contributes to a great version.

No bad ones at all from this era, but listen in and you can hear Jerry drive Bobby higher and higher. Great powerful emotive energy.

Blisteringly hot version here. Great show all 'round.

Edmundson Pavilion
Seriously tight and intricate. What a show this must have been. Phil's extensive soloing shows off his enormous genius.

A hell of a lot of music in these 46 minutes. I wouldn't say it gets as freaky as some, say 02.12.73, but endlessly fascinating. Something to contemplate, enjoy, and fade in and out to.

Dane County Coliseum
Played almost as a boogie-woogie, and Keith shows off his stride chops. Just lickety-split and dandy.
Mind Left Body Jam
May 19, 1974
Portland Memorial Coliseum
Turns MLB from a serene chill-out groove into a funk-blaster, and Jerry lets you know it with some vicious steam-whistle guitar noise at the start. Coooooooooooool.
