"It's a little tune in honor of this building" - rockin' Samson set opener

Samson and Delilah
March 10, 1985
Berkeley Community Theatre

Sweet show opener where the *whole* band is on - even as an AUD only you can clearly hear the entire band

Spanish Jam
April 17, 1982
Hartford Civic Center

A rare Spanish Jam without Jerry, but Bobby, Brent, and Phil make it sweet nonetheless

Dear Mr. Fantasy

Hampton Coliseum

Superb transition from space into this classic Traffic cover - nailed just right on all levels

The Other One
May 17, 1981
Onondaga Auditorium

Short but blazing - a personal favorite. Brent's Hammond truly makes this shine. He's Gone>O1 is just such an awesome combo

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.
