Brown Eyed Women

2 Drummer breakbeat attack with Phil throwing down the rope a dope and Jer firing darts - this one's lively.

Mexicali Blues
April 6, 1982
The Spectrum

Admittedly not a favorite tune for me but this is super crispy - laconic delivery by Weir w/ Jer's picking and tone perfection. Whole show is massive.

Thompson Arena - Dartmouth College

Playfully different melody here really cool Jer is sporting very catchy phrasing - mid tempo no hurry super chill with highlights.

Playin' In The Band
Nov. 22, 1972
Austin Municipal Auditorium

Look at the date and check it out this one's a big Keith and Phil dance all over this mix in a really good way - BTW not sure if that is a full cut at the end or if Phil's channel just dropped..in either case it is oddly soothing to me....
Black Throated Wind
Nov. 22, 1972
Austin Municipal Auditorium

This take has something special going on -great call
Good Morning Little Schoolgirl
April 12, 1969

Hey Darkstar - if you like the call and response on this Lovelight - check out 4/12/71 - which is completely MENTAL.
Cold Rain and Snow
