Brown Eyed Women

Spartan Stadium - San Jose State University

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.

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

Lost Sailor -> Saint of Circumstance

The Spectrum

This one's a keeper from a sneaky good show. I like this combo in '80.
Cold Rain and Snow
Aug. 30, 1980
The Spectrum

Crunchy, chewy, fuzzy, ropey = great call.
Throwing Stones
Oct. 22, 1983
Carrier Dome, Syracuse U

Some early 80's Throwin' Stones does me justice at a time like this.....
Queen Jane Approximately
July 12, 1987
Giants Stadium

The Joey that came after CF was completely epic at least for me...Jerry belting it out on one of my favorite Dylan tunes. Never expected it so made my day big time.
Wharf Rat
July 8, 1978
Red Rocks Amphitheatre

This one is special and deserves it's high ranking.
