Ramble On Rose
June 7, 1980
Folsom Field

Jerry means every note in this solo. Love the false harmonics and power chords.

Mexicali Blues
May 14, 1980
Nassau Coliseum

Jerry's solo will wake you the fuck up with chills down your spine. Phil and Bobby are going for it too.

U.S. Blues (Wave That Flag)
May 12, 1980
Boston Garden

Just when you think this is a throwaway tune it isn't. Jerry kills, kills, kills the solo. And sings.

Cumberland County Civic Center

Jerry takes a completely different approach to the jam, takes it way far out

Big River

Rec Hall, Penn State U

Love how Jerry leaps from bluegrass riffs to blues bends in his early solos. At the end Bobby and Jerry are twisting and turning around each other.

McNichols Arena

Phil is great as the comments say but Jerry is the one who is really feeling it in the jam.
Passenger

Red Rocks Amphitheatre

Phil kills it
Truckin'
May 9, 1979
Broome County Arena

Love how Bobby climbs to the peak. Great jam after too.
Sugaree
May 9, 1979
Broome County Arena

Huge 20-minute version. Jerry is full of ideas and loose and free. Bobby plays a great slide riff at almost 12 minutes in.
Stagger Lee

Recreation Hall - Penn State University

Another third chorus in the solo and Jerry rips it up
