Pauley Pavilion

The band is tight and Jerry doesn't miss a beat. Seems like he's surfing with his guitar lines.

I think Jerry's working ideas out in new places in the fretboard during the "China" solo, and Brent is contributing some interesting colors.

Nice slow shuffle, and Jerry's playing is quite melodic. But he brings the heat at the end (with some help from Keith).

Came back around to this one. They're rock and roll wizards.

Powerful and hypnotic.

Hell yes! Smoking great jam (a la 12/12/69 or 4/15/70) that dissolves into a nice space.
China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider

Fillmore East

Nice little version that ends with a High Times tease.

There's a great Jerry/Bobby space > a long duet leading into Iko. Absolutely worth a listen to hear this interplay.
