Playin' In The Band
June 19, 1976
Capitol Theatre

Another piece that’s been absorbed deep into the grey matter (surely rainbow-tinged by now) over the years and then brought to new life with a video. Thanks, everyone.
The Other One
Oct. 12, 1968
Avalon Ballroom

AKA the good shit.
Black Throated Wind
April 24, 1972
Rheinhalle

Jer's run-up the scale near the end is just exactly perfect.
Scarlet Begonias
Sept. 30, 1976
Mershon Auditorium, OSU

Signature Lesh. This jam is still floating up there in the rafters, if this building still stands. Once they fling the song out there, surely the music was ready to latch onto Fire, had it been born yet.
King Solomon's Marbles
March 23, 1975
Kezar Stadium

Mainlining this through headphones, tough to beat (unless the neighbors aren't around) and highly recommended.
