Me and My Uncle

Bobby sings the hell out of this one. I know we've all heard dozens of these, but this one had that little bit extra that throws it over the top.

This song usually doesn't do it for me, but this is quite pretty. The SBD cuts out mid-solo, but it's a minor problem.

Jerry flubs some lyrics, but I liked the solo. Hints at the promise later to come in this well-known show.

Grand Prix Racecourse

The surviving tape has some issues, but this is a powerful version.

Nice version! Tempo is different from the ones I'm most familiar with (77-ish), but I like this, and Jerry plays some interesting lines over the chord changes.

Heard some of the hype around this show and was expecting more, but it's a decent version.

Sure, what the hell.

I don't know if I'll vote for it yet, but this is one of a few performances in the first part of this set that I dug.
Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain
Dec. 27, 1983
Civic Auditorium

Absolutely worth a listen, if only because it's so unexpected.
