Veterans' Memorial Coliseum

Controlled distortion is an art that Jer can paint with. Brent lends the waterglass accents here and there all good.

One More Saturday Night

Lindley Meadows, Golden Gate Park

JG upfront in the mix and rips your bluesy face off. Cowbells, bangin' keys and DJ caterwauling - it's all here.

I am digging the tone and action of what must be an SG Jer's strapped on. Nice one.
The Other One
April 16, 1984
Community War Memorial Auditorium

Yeah I like this TOO Grendel - and must admit I love '84 since I was knee deep into the scene after starting to see shows in '82... check 4/24/84 for a very similar one and the short diamond studded gem of 4/6/82 - the TOO > Dew is stellar...BTW 4/20/84 goes down as one of my all-time shows...

Greek Theatre, U. Of California

Do yourself a favor and you use the phones - soundboard hijinks with Jerry's vocal switching channels. Salty solo.

Thanks for the nod Crow - Goddamn if this outro isn't special check that rolling RioGrandeooo.... they waste no time getting to it.... but once there the outro rolls and rolls rolls. Keith's touches are delicate and lovely throughout while Jerry cooks it loooooong and slooooooow.
