Jerry and Bobby are great here. Burning.

U.S. Blues (Wave That Flag)

Easily the best version of this song I've ever heard. Listen to how Jerry sings!

If shows with great sounding SBs are overrated, the opposite is true. Jerry is burning this night and his solo here is spectacular.

Fox Theatre

One of the best versions of this era. Jerry is loose and free. Bobby plays a great slide solo (really).

Boutwell Auditorium

The transition jam is longer than previous versions and many later ones, and Jerry goes somewhere in it. That should have happened more.

This is all over the place and I mean that in a good way. Especially Phil.

Everyone shows up for this. Love what Phil plays at 9:20.

This one is burning hot and not to be missed. Jerry is on fire.
