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.

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

Eyes Of The World

Feyline Field

Locked in is right - just a reminder this take is a 10 and if you take a listen you might just turn it to 11. Straight with no chaser right here.
Blow Away
Aug. 27, 1972
Old Renaissance Faire Grounds

I’m pretty sure this was 1st time played and it was known as “The Blow Jam” (sometimes mis-labeled “The Sixteen”). Either way it smokes and supposedly you can hear Phil bust a string in the middle break after Jer’s 3rd woooo...didn’t make the movie due to film crew bathroom break.

Jerry in fine fettle, Phil blows kisses ... roll tape to reminisce. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=nwqXS20UAT4
