Not Fade Away

Boston Music Hall

The jam before is listed as a controlled mind-altering substance in 92 countries, but its cut on the archive is the cruelest thing I know.

Intense, driving energy. Phil belts out the chorus like his life depends on it.

China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider
April 7, 1971
Boston Music Hall

CCS is supremely tight, with a bit of that '69 magic sound to it, and IKYR rocks. Followed by a Stephen, so maybe some nostalgia? Sounds great.

Hard to Handle

Manhattan Center

Great 'Bobby segment', as his solo has come to be known. Whole show overshadowed by the outrageous monster the next day, but still great fun.

Winterland Arena

Actually one god-dammned hard rockin' blast-off: Uptempo and hardcore.

Playin' In The Band
Aug. 6, 1971
Hollywood Palladium

Playin' in 2nd half of '71 shows the seeds of evolution toward the epic it would become in the next year. This one is tight and cool. Good version.
Hard to Handle
Aug. 6, 1971
Hollywood Palladium

When Pig Dead hits your mind give this one the time. No brakes, no hesitation, no regrets. Oh - and one of Jerry's all time best blues solos too.

Winterland Arena

As epic as they come.
Alligator
Jan. 3, 1970
Fillmore East
