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."

Franklin's Tower
Sept. 28, 1975
Lindley Meadows, Golden Gate Park

Great, but too short for my tastes. I wish they'd replaced the vocal bit at the end with another solo.
The Music Never Stopped
Sept. 28, 1975
Lindley Meadows, Golden Gate Park

Maybe my new favorite version of this song.
Help On The Way > Slipknot > Franklin's Tower

Same here! The energy captured here is stupendous.
They Love Each Other
Sept. 28, 1975
Lindley Meadows, Golden Gate Park

Nice version! They sound super tight here.

I have a SBD if anyone's missing it. Killer stuff.
