Don't think it's great on it's own, but nice part of Estimated>He's Gone>D>S>Truckin'>TOO>Stella sequence.

I think this version works best when Keith is adding color to it, and he sounds nice here.

Ramble On Rose

Nassau Coliseum

“Rose” has that nice shuffle-boogie I love so much (I think they nail the tempo). Listen to the crowd explode when he hits the “just like NYC” line!

Why should you give a whiz about another version of Minglewood?

Red Rocks Amphitheatre

Killer stuff. Someone recommended me the matrix of this (https://archive.org/details/gd1978-07-08.126239.mtx-redo.eichorn.sbeok.t-flac16). Powerful playing.

I was indifferent to the Truckin', but this is a great jam.

Iowa State Fairgrounds

Obviously a superior version from a run full of them, but Joe_Brown and Quibus point out the obvious weakness: the transition into Big River. They land it, and it's interesting, but things fall apart for while.

Keith makes this version.
