Rock music as it should be. The band is really on this night and this song just flies.

Donna and Bobby really sing it-NO screeching. Their singing throughout this June 76 run is just fine. For all you Donna haters, listen to this

Solid,well sung, nice little solo, and it is so sweet after the huge UJB>Wharf Rat>DS>Sugar Mag that comes before it. It just fits in so well.

Chinatown Shuffle

Musikhalle

All about Keith's fine piano work. Possibly the best in contention with 14/4/72
Bird Song
Aug. 12, 1972
Sacramento Memorial Auditorium

The Bird Songs from this show , the nights at Berkeley through to Veneta, each one a priceless gem. They need more listening and I'm sure more of you would upvote these shows

First ever. Love this and the following night. When Jerry sang so sweet.
Truckin'

The JAM is pure sweet jammy goodness. Lovely slide work. An all round good Truckin'.
Looks Like Rain

Winterland Arena

I often skip this song, but as I was downloading the show, gave it a listen. This is a very lovely version. What I like about this whole show is the 1976 quality vocals of Bobby and Donna- staying within their range, not screeching. Go check out the Sugar mag from this show.
