Boston Garden

"It's a little tune in honor of this building" - rockin' Samson set opener

Samson and Delilah
March 10, 1985
Berkeley Community Theatre

Sweet show opener where the *whole* band is on - even as an AUD only you can clearly hear the entire band

Spanish Jam
April 17, 1982
Hartford Civic Center

A rare Spanish Jam without Jerry, but Bobby, Brent, and Phil make it sweet nonetheless

Dear Mr. Fantasy

Hampton Coliseum

Superb transition from space into this classic Traffic cover - nailed just right on all levels

The Other One
May 17, 1981
Onondaga Auditorium

Short but blazing - a personal favorite. Brent's Hammond truly makes this shine. He's Gone>O1 is just such an awesome combo

Saint of Circumstance
April 5, 1991
The Omni

Wow really out there soaring Saint of Circumstance. The jam almost sounds like the one in Cassidy. Ultramatrix is great but I personally like the Oade AUD
China Doll
Nov. 2, 1985
Richmond Coliseum

Fine little Playin' jam at the very end - check out the Oade AUD
Wharf Rat
Sept. 18, 1988
Madison Square Garden

Where is the love for this show?? I know it's better on paper but it's not played poorly - average at worst. Fun show with a heartfelt wharf rat
Ramble On Rose
Oct. 28, 1985
Fox Theater

Jerry kicks rose into top gear. Excellent 80's version
Comes A Time
June 25, 1991
Sandstone Amphitheatre

Dreamy - floats along after two minutes of beautiful space teasing Comes a Time. Summer '91 hardly disappoints!
