Stella Blue
April 24, 1984
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
Sept. 28, 1975
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.

Just came across this disc from an old friend who has moved on... rarely listen to anything after '90....but this version sticks with me. +1
Playin' In The Band

The Spectrum

They grip this and rip it until there's nothing left.
China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider
May 4, 1981
The Spectrum

Jer takes what appears to be a laid back approach here and then throws CRAZY fills all over the this one - sheesh - have never heard one like this ... can't tell if he carved a fatty at the break or just was in a good mood... the S+D that follows is toxic so maybe it was the powder.
Samson and Delilah
May 4, 1981
The Spectrum

The whole gang is torqued up for this one - Fuego.
Eyes Of The World
Feb. 9, 1973
Roscoe Maples Pavilion - Stanford University

Oh so fine for the first time played and easily one of the top 10 versions ever.
