To Lay Me Down
June 20, 1974
The Omni

Keith and Phil flutter around Jer's vocal and then he steams in with his lead. Soft harmonies, sweet sounds...

Lazy Lightnin' -> Supplication

Golden Hall, Community Concourse

Someone who loves this combo is more qualified to comment on this - but seems pretty good.

Loser

Folsom Field

Jer bites down like a great white on an electric cable - this one burns. Check Sir Mick.

Fillmore West

All the bells and whistles right here.. pleading jarring howling zonked out 69 action.

Hard rocker with Jerry blasting a hail of lead at the crowd.

Philadelphia Civic Center

Jerry is so SLIPPERY on this top shelf ‘80’s take. Hmmmmm. Sbd.
The Other One
March 14, 1981
Hartford Civic Center

What is it about Hartford and this reference? Jerry plays Bach’s Jesu Joy of Man’s Desiring in Space on 10/15/84 as well. Played it again later this same month in Berkeley.
Franklin's Tower

Red Rocks Amphitheatre

No brainer! Take a listen and vote your conciousness….
Eyes Of The World
July 8, 1978
Red Rocks Amphitheatre

Up tempo wonderful Eyes that has everything great about ‘78 inside, GRobbers right about the janky strumming but I absolutely love whenever Jerry does this throughout the years and love this little interlude too, also I think that’s Donna with a perfectly placed Wheew! On the last verse. Bobby, Phil, Billy, Mick all laying the foundation for Jerry to soar. So worth a listen!
Not Fade Away
May 14, 1970
Merramec Community College

JG back on the SG never fails. 70-71 NFAs blaze the hottest and are my personal taste. Dangerous garage band jammin’ imo - still don’t understand how 4/28/71 is not in the top 10.
