Not Fade Away
Nov. 20, 1970
The Palestra, U. of Rochester

Sounds exactly like I am standing next to the guy taping it. Rippin '70 sonic energy.

Plaintive and soulful take that gets nicely bluesy at the finish a fine example of their sound this year.

Brutal in the best way TOO > CE Jam
Space
Sept. 18, 1974
Parc des Expositions

The Jerry Space is on the CM soundcheck. If you mistakenly listen to Seastones you are hearing the Devil's transmissions. Go ahead see for yourself.

The Omni

And now for something completely different ...
He's Gone
Sept. 28, 1972
Stanley Theatre

See 11/22/72 for an even better take in the same vein.
Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain
Dec. 3, 1981
Dane County Coliseum

The first solo in Scarlet reminds me of 4/20/84 he just does not cut loose near as much on this take.... Still pretty damn fine and that hollow effect in Fire is the kill.
