Cold Rain and Snow

Capitol Theater

Cold Rain and Slow - very mellow cool version they seem to be tooling around the arrangement - Bobby and Keith standout on this one.

Intro is long and dreamy all Jer + Keith. Jerry and Donna's vocal work is lovely here.

Jazzy Jazz .... Donna's nicely in tune for a change.

This one's all country upfront and then country fried on the outro...nice! (source:CM)

They hit the groove on this one so Jerry can throw the nasty sauce on it. (source:CM)

The Other One

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.

No brainer! Take a listen and vote your conciousness….
Eyes Of The World

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

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.
U.S. Blues (Wave That Flag)
April 18, 1978
Civic Arena

Criminally low for another killer ‘78 spin on this classic.
