Wonderful Greatest Story with EVERYONE on. Comes out of a hot Alabama. The mix shines everyone through well, and is a classic early Brent version

Samson and Delilah
June 12, 1976
Music Hall

If I ever went to a show where Samson was the first set opener I'd lose my mind Face was properly stolen off my head after hearing this version. Drummers and Phil are on fire
Attics of My Life
Oct. 3, 1994
Boston Garden

Please give this a listen - truly a shining star in an era many people (myself included) ignore
Dire Wolf
Oct. 3, 1994
Boston Garden

Really strong version for this late in Jerry's career. Vocals and playing are on point. This is one of many highlighs of a late era show that is just excellent
The Music Never Stopped
March 13, 1985
Berkeley Community Theatre

This needs MORE votes - the ending jam is one of the best 80's TMNS moments I've heard. Knocked my socks off for sure
Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain
Sept. 18, 1988
Madison Square Garden

Wonderful Scarlet preceeding the great FOTM as has already been pointed out. A short transition jam but nothing to scoff at. A show that was surely better in person but not to be missed!
