Convincing vocal performance by Jer. Especially second verse.

Promised Land

Cumberland County Civic Center

Rowdy, spirited version. Jerry not quite done with it when everyone else is.

Bird Song

Henry J. Kaiser Convention Center

Listen to Phil on this one. Then listen to Bobby.

Morning Dew

The Fox theater

OK, I'll say it: "I can't believe this isn't on here." Majestic, powerful MD. Jerry on a mission. Bobby playing clippety-cloppety sounds in the coda.

Franklin's Tower

Red Rocks Amphitheatre

Great version at the end of an amazing 2nd set sequence. Love what Bobby plays at the end, and Jerry throughout.
Wharf Rat

Red Rocks Amphitheatre

The intro has a Dark Star vibe. Great version.
U.S. Blues (Wave That Flag)
July 7, 1978
Red Rocks Amphitheatre

Fantastic, raucous version. Great solo. Great slide playing by Bobby (you heard me right).
Estimated Prophet
July 5, 1978
Omaha Civic Auditorium

Heavy, intense version. Listen to Phil as well as Jerry in the jam.
Pretty Peggy O
July 3, 1978
St. Paul Civic Center Arena

Jerry gives it all in the solo. Had to listen to it twice. Even the parts that don't sound good sound great when you listen again.
