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)

All of the above comments are true. I checked and Jerry really goes “Big Dawg” here.

Bobby biffs the final verse because Jerry ripped everyone's face off with his solo - Oh mi dios!
Mississippi Halfstep Uptown Toodeloo
Nov. 13, 1978
Music Hall

One of those nights where Jerry SOARS on certain tunes, Peggy-O, Jack Straw and this Half-Step are exhibits 1,2&3.

Raw and biting solo the way I like'em, I love Stagger Lee's but so, so many can be disasters (tempo?). This one keeps the momentum going and Jer's dialed up hotlicks this evening. BDub's' slide is palatable too..
