Stella Blue

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.

Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain
April 20, 1984
Philadelphia Civic Center

honestly this how I like'em and don't understand how this isn't higher? I must admit I was not a midi fan in the later years ....sure jer's vox was a little rough these tours but dang pay attention to his jamming and you will see he knew it and was making up for it with his playing..... checkout my Dew recommendation from Hampton for another example...
China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider
Oct. 18, 1989
The Spectrum

Tons of fun and they show it - Jerry and Brent have great interplay and towards the end Phil throws out some thumpers :)

If you like this one check out 4/14/84 seriously! not as murky to my ears - but this one is great. Also if you are a DEW head check this MASTERCLASS version
