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

Spacey Fried Goodness!
Samson and Delilah
Feb. 4, 1978
Milwaukee Auditorium

Awesome Samson, gets somehow even more smokin' after the 5 min mark
Playin' In The Band
May 26, 1972
Strand Lyceum

Weaving in and out of the Playin'/Main Ten theme throughout this one. Might be mistaken but this is the longest/one of the longer Playin's on the E72 tour
Dark Star

Tivolis Koncertsal

Lovely, dynamic and engaging DS. Big fan of when you can hear everyone clearly and how they each drive the jams.

Gaelic Park

When people talk about "Phil-led" shows and songs, this is what they mean. Excellent Other One
