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

Samson and Delilah

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

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

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

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
