Uncle John's Band

Nassau Coliseum

Nice jammy Uncle John's sandwiched between Shakedown and Playin. I prefer the Eaton AUD over the SBD as of 2/13/23.

Uptown Theater

Really great, lovely extended intro thx to Jerry. Everyone is on point and is a nice transition from the beautiful Comes a Time that preceeded it

Dire Wolf
Aug. 21, 1983
Frost Amphitheater

Despite the lack of vocals at the very beginning this is a great laid back Dire Wolf. The Frost is a nice place to space your face (~):)

Phil's singing is really solid on this one, band doesn't stumble over each other.

Turn On Your Love Light

Henry J. Kaiser Auditorium

Valentine's Day '88 - very fitting for them to close with Lovelight. They played Lovelight at every Valentines show. Great band interplay

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!
