Rip roaring out of Uncle John's Band and after a high octane 2nd set, how else to finish?

Best of the Fillmore East run,IMO. Sharp and clean guitar work,purposeful but still relaxed in the best early Deal tradition

1970, this is new and the boys sound so full of energy and excitement. The whole show has just been reseeded on IA, worth a listen.

agreed. A really good show, overlooked in a year that is often underrated or completely ignored in favour of 1977-1978 shows. I love these 1976 shows. The best singing Bobby and Donna ever did together. very little screeching. The band playing tightly, in sync with each other. Joy

Another fine stand alone version. This whole show is solid, with some standouts, like this and ship of fools. Also a tasty Playin' in the band sandwiching Drums>the wheel>space> PITB to end the first half.

today is August 22nd. PLEASE go and listen to this version of GDTRFB and upvote it. It goes into a real nice version of Hey Bo Diddley >NFA. You won't regret it.

This is one of the first "Deals" with the extended 2nd guitar solo. OMG! Whaat a wonderful, high energy,brilliant version. Better than the 2 1989 versions, because Jerry's voice is still good.

Keith is having a good show-in fact all the band is on . This whole run of shows should be released as a box set-come on Dave.
