Great powerful version, (Phil is possessed) from an underrated show, give it a listen.

Not Fade Away
Aug. 31, 1979
Glenns Falls Civic Center

Great intro, Weir on slide, (yes well played Weir slide), some nice jamming between verses, more slide, (not as nice), another jam after the NFA coda

Franklin's Tower

Madison Square Garden

Another solid version from the Fall ’79 tour, neat closing jam, not as long as the 2 amazing Cape Cod versions, but worth a listen

Franklin's Tower

Holleder Memorial Stadium

Out of an amazing and way underrated Half-Step, this version rocks. Not quite up to the Cape Cod versions, but Fall ’79 rules. Give it a listen.

Satisfaction

The Spectrum

Another smoking version from Spring ’83. Just listened to it for the first time in 29-1/2 years. Great Bobby rap again, Get No, Get No, No No No!

Casey Jones
Oct. 2, 1977
Paramount Theatre

Now this is what I was hoping from this site, a great version of a classic song that I have never heard. This is indeed one of the best Casey Jones ever played. The rust was just shrugged off, (first one since ’74) and a layered middle jam, (when Jerry spaced the vocals) just flows, 4 or 5 times around with Keith even taking a turn is amazing, the closing vocals are also very strong. Thanks for the insight.
Sugar Magnolia
June 20, 1983
Merriweather Post Pavilion

The best Sugar Magnolia I saw live, love the aboriginal rap at the end, wonder if they are right and this is all “Just a Dream”.
The Music Never Stopped
Feb. 3, 1978
Dane County Coliseum

A close second to 04-24 Normal, the two best from '78 for sure
Dancin' in the Streets
May 11, 1978
Springfield Civic Center Arena

My first Dancin’ and one of the best all time. The final vocal jam makes me smile every time I hear it.
Stella Blue
Jan. 11, 1979
Nassau Coliseum

This one was when I got “Stella” probably too high for my first two, 1978-05-05_Dartmouth and 1978-05-11_Springfield and it became my favorite Jerry ballad for my remaining years on tour. I love when they bring it to a completion, not cut off to soon and this one soars.
