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

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

Cosmic cowboy, how do you do?
Goin' Down The Road Feelin' Bad

Iowa State Fairgrounds

Billy drives this one throughout - great GDTRFB
Stella Blue
May 18, 1977
Fox Theatre

The outro jam makes me want to tear up...forever grateful (~):)
The Other One
May 18, 1977
Fox Theatre

From blazing hot to spacey wonder, this Other One packs it all. The Jerry spacey jam at the end leading into Stella is most enjoyable.
Dark Star
Aug. 24, 1972
Berkeley Community Theatre

Excellent Star with my favorite part being the jam after about 20 minutes in, veers into lots of fun territory and Phil's tone beginning to shape like how it would sound in '73
