Sweet Jerry vocals. A delicate ship setting sail into the post 1974 seas. Good harmonies from Bob and Donna. An overlooked show from an overlooked yea

One of best of 1974. Tight, Jerry inventive and confident, good soloing. Everything a Deal should be. Give it a listen.

Comes out of a MLB jam, a big fat mellow groove sets out what is one of those weeks of really good versions.

U.S. Blues (Wave That Flag)

Providence Civic Center

Almost but not quite as good as 2 nights later in Boston.
Scarlet Begonias
June 28, 1976
Auditorium Theatre

Il ove these 1976 versions as Donna gets to sing -no screeching. Same with Sunshine Daydream and Stella Blue. Turn on, tune in and turn back time 40 years. You won't regret it.

Roosevelt Stadium

Just absolutely gorgeous,jazzy jamfest-with little tinkling bells and chimes on at the end. A cliche on this site ,I know, but more folks need to listen to this-25 minutes that will enhance your life.
