Is there such a thing as a mellow Watchtower? This might be it. Goes into a great Dew

Dupree's Diamond Blues

Silva Hall - Hult Center for the Performing Arts

One of those heady, gritty early 80's Duprees. Also Jerry nails the lyrics! No fumbles at all, astonishing really

Lovely show opener, mix is a bit wonky at first but Phil is all over it. Great show all in all!

Peppy Iko to start the night off - good show overlooked by the rest of the run

They take their time for the intro. Right out of space into this Spencer Davis cover. Brent is the MAN!!! Phil in top form too of course :)

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

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

Civic Center

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