Very cool NFA sandwich. It works well this way.

Starts with the chorus instead of the verse and a funny banter intro. Sweet version.

As deep and simple a beautiful blues as they ever did. Pig's got the spirit of the Delta here alright. What a treat.

Upvote for all Little Sadies, of course, but this one is special. Subtle, understated, and delicate: Jerry is barely whispering the lyrics. Beautiful.

Playin' In The Band

Boston Music Hall

Not as face-melting as December 02, but has great energy and beautiful jamming.
Mississippi Halfstep Uptown Toodeloo

Music Hall

Great all around show. One of my faves.
The Music Never Stopped
April 24, 1978
Horton Field House - Illinois State University

Bobby and Donna are having so much fun. I'm not one to comment on Donna, but wow, she just sounds great here and adds a lot. (!) Out of sight jam too.
The Music Never Stopped
Sept. 30, 1976
Mershon Auditorium, OSU

I always thought of MLB as the jam that morphed into The Music Never Stopped around the pause in '75, and it's loud and clear here. Nice version, but too short!
Dark Star

Miami Arena

Captures the dark cosmic chaos. Emotional, heavy. The forces tear loose from their axis, indeed.
