Walking Blues

Sam Boyd Silver Bowl

Excellent Walkin' Blues from the Dueling Keyboard era - an exemplar of '91

Brokedown Palace
March 19, 1995
The Spectrum

Encore at show that premiered Unbroken Chain live. A warm, coherent, and emotional Brokedown in an era of mediocrity. RIP Jerry

The Omni

Solid Set Opener, not as intense as later versions in the year but excellent nonetheless

Not Fade Away

Rosemont Horizon

Out of a spectacular space comes this masterpiece, chock full of jamming - descends into a great Wharf Rat

Hollywood Palladium

Solid version despite a vocal mishap from Jerry
Not Fade Away
Sept. 18, 1988
Madison Square Garden

Real party vibes to this show - the boys were just having a great time, and it must've been even more fun in person
Truckin'
June 29, 1973
Universal Amphitheatre

Fiery outro into the O1. Solid vocals as well
The Other One
June 29, 1973
Universal Amphitheatre

Even with the tape flip around 10:55 this might be one of my favorite Other One's ever. The Phil Jam early on and the slipknot-ish jam closing out this O1 are just so awesome. Cannot recommend this highly enough and as a magnificent bonus this goes into a fantastic Morning Dew
Greatest Story Ever Told
Oct. 11, 1989
Meadowlands Arena

Strong Bobby show - Great Greatest Story
