Really fascinating space/jam after drums, lots of other one hints that ends in an abrupt NFA transition

Victim Or The Crime
Sept. 18, 1993
Madison Square Garden

Long intro to this one - as time went on it seems that the band, especially Jerry, were beginning to grow fond of the dark space that Victim provided.
Loser

Freedom Hall

A rare post-'72 Sweet Suzy - solo ain't as bad as Bignoze says IMO. Lots of beautiful interplay as stated before. Vocals are definetely up there with best of '74
China Doll
Dec. 30, 1980
Oakland Auditorium

Excellent version with flawless outro into A&A. The only NFA>China Doll I believe
Stella Blue
Dec. 10, 1972
Winterland Arena

The outro, though cut, is one of the most solid for the period. You can tell it's going somewhere heady
Promised Land
Dec. 10, 1972
Winterland Arena
