Allan Kirby Field House

The early Brent era can really be jaw dropping, as this is...epic Jack straws were aplenty in 79....

Slow groove...all parts are on point...so much tenderness and yet so much power

Seattle Center Coliseum

Swingin' and groovin'...Phil takes charge on forgotten first verse..Bob drops an f-bomb but seems to censor himself on "ain't it a shame" line. Funny

Baltimore Civic Center

Just listened to this tonight and the death of Pigpen clearly still weighs heavily on the band, but they shrug the weight thru the joy of playing together and the memory of Pig...If you can't hear it, you might not be listening

Totally de facto...had never really given this one a solid listen...Glad I did. Came here to post it, and pleased to see it is already highly thought of cuz I really dug it. Crowd reaction after tells the tale. There's something different about this one

This has long been one of my faves...it is most definitely rip-roaring to the max...it never fails to pump me up
