Dallas County Convention Center Arena

You can tell this was a great rendition but this AUD is just way too muddy. An aggressive EQ might do this one some good

No SBD but this AUD is actually quite fantastic. This is a superb version, totally worth your time

Words to describe this one: gentle, tranquil, just beautiful. Criminally underrated. Talkin 25 to life criminally underrated.

There's some intentional stutters in the solo that the whole band picks up on and its magical. On fire, not sure how this wasn't already here

Very abrupt out of mama tried-- Jerry takes a longer solo and totally kills it. 100% worth a listen

Playin' In The Band
July 15, 1984
Greek Theatre - University of California

^^^I do that when checking out a new version as usually the body of the playin' is nothing new. But when I'm listening to Veneta or any other classic monster that I'm already familiar with I let it play out as I enjoy the setup of the song into the meld into the jam

Man I used to think this one was overrated. Listened to this probably 3 or 4 times last night. When even Donnie skips being a hater you know that you've got yourself a performance.
Truckin'

Stanley Theatre

A cruise through space eh.... will make note to listen to this one. Truckin... down to the kuiper belt
Playin' In The Band

Olympia Theater

Great rec on this one ds67. These condensed e72 versions are very no-bullshit, straight to the punch. Love Keith's descending lines on playin as well
Dark Star
Jan. 2, 1970
Fillmore East (Late Show)

Fucking amazing. The tighten up is simply transcendent. Sometimes this band will make you feel completely free from all ails and stressors, and this star is a pristine example of that. Makes me feel like I'm blissfully flying away from everything that is negative in life
