Audio problems abound, but I quite fancy Jerry's playing in "Scarlet."

Fast. Tight. Happy. What more could you ask for?

Not Fade Away

Grand Prix Racecourse

Be forewarned- the sound quality on this is absolutely brutal, but it's worth it if you can make it through.

Felt Forum - Madison Square Garden

Out of a killer "DS," and a nice reading of a classic blues tune. Dig those changes!

Playin' In The Band

Mine too. I'd go so far as to say f the comparisons– good is good, and the band wasn't trying to recreate their earlier sound, but create a new one each time. There's some stellar interplay here, and the recording quality is fantastic. Also the ending section and transition into "Drums" is quite lovely.

Both Brent and Jerry throw down some great solos here. Seriously good version!
