Not Fade Away
April 3, 1970
Field House, U. of Cincinnati

Short, hot, right into a killer "Lovelight"

Candyman
April 3, 1970
Field House, U. of Cincinnati

Premiere version from the middle/acoustic set. Audible buzz on the SBD, but worth the historic interest and for Jerry's wordless penultimate verse.

China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider
April 3, 1970
Field House, U. of Cincinnati

Jerry stumbles a bit during the transition, but a powerful early version.

Stella Blue
Sept. 11, 1982
West Palm Beach Auditorium

Highlight from the end of the show.

Truckin'
Sept. 11, 1982
West Palm Beach Auditorium

Kicks back into the cowboy vibe from earlier in the show, leads into a stellar "Stella."

Loved hearing it emerge from "Mountains."
Dupree's Diamond Blues

Nice recording (and it's acoustic, till the end of "Mountains").
Not Fade Away
April 25, 1971
Fillmore East

Do you have an AUD you'd recommend? I couldn't find one on the Archive, and don't own "Ladies and Gentlemen...". Thanks!

Yowza, what a barn burner!
