Walking Blues

Sam Boyd Silver Bowl

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

Brokedown Palace

The Spectrum

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

Samson and Delilah
March 28, 1989
The Omni

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

Not Fade Away
Dec. 6, 1981
Rosemont Horizon

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

Shakedown Street
Dec. 6, 1989
Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum

Excellent Shakedown - Brent quickly plays the Hammond for a unique start
Tennessee Jed
Feb. 24, 1973
University of Iowa

Blazing hot Jed, must be heard at least once. Even this fragment of a show is amazing
Crazy Fingers
April 7, 1991
Orlando Arena

Real heady jam heading out of Crazy Fingers and into Playin'
Mississippi Halfstep Uptown Toodeloo
Oct. 2, 1972
Springfield Civic Center

So so underrated. Just an excellent early Half-Step with great playing that leads into another Wake of the Flood classic, Stella Blue
Greatest Story Ever Told
June 30, 1974
Civic Center

Really out there and spacey. Wonderful work from Jerry. Here and there at the same time - a Schrödinger's GSET.
