Rocking Casey Jones, first one with Brent. The band sounds completely revitalized with a new keyboard player.

Not Fade Away
Nov. 2, 1979
Nassau Coliseum

This Not Fade Away is outstanding, slow funky intro and high energy vocals lead to a short second jam, but it will bring a smile to your face.

C. C. Rider

Madison Square Garden

I love the Branford solo, very sweet and where Jerry’s solo is supposed to be they transition to “Its Takes a Lot to Laugh…” Give it a listen.

C. C. Rider

Stanley Theater

Out of an amazing Gloria jam, the first C. C. Rider is a must listen, Bobby just spits out the lyrics. The jam that follows is hot as well.

The Music Never Stopped
Dec. 7, 1979
Indiana Convention Center

The Mid-Section jam also soars, and the final is sick. I don't know a better version from 79' This should have more votes, give it a listen.
Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain
March 18, 1977
Winterland Arena

Listened to this again today, love how laid back the Scarlet jam is, Donna adds a lot, very mellow and cool and the start of Fire is so sublime, so much confidence. The brief distortion at the start of the closing jam just gives me the chills each time I hear it, what a debut!!
Looks Like Rain

Winterland Arena

Very nice version from a GREAT 3-Night Winterland run
Not Fade Away
May 28, 1977
Hartford Civic Center

Had to add vote, show #2 for me and this is a very Heady version.
Not Fade Away
March 18, 1977
Winterland Arena

Heard it a few times, but today it got my attention, the climax jam is just outstanding. I'm going to give the Matrix a listen, my Clugston-Lucas CBD aud patch is very harsh. This show (3-Night run) should be released.
