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.

Feel Like A Stranger

Cumberland County Civic Center
Jerry takes a completely different approach to the jam, takes it way far out

Big River
May 6, 1980
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.

Jerry quotes Miles Davis's Freedom Jazz Dance, which he used to play with Merle
Man Smart, Woman Smarter

Glen Helen Regional Park
It's baffling that Bobby would turn the beat around on a tune as rhythmically straightforward as this
Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain

Manor Downs
The phrase Jerry plays in the transition at around 10:30 kills me, a searching little melody and its response with the volume pedal
Mississippi Halfstep Uptown Toodeloo
July 25, 1982
Compton Terrace Amphitheatre
Beautiful searching, inquisitive solos, plus you get to hear Jerry telling us to get yourself a parking lot
Estimated Prophet
May 23, 1982
Greek Theatre, U. Of California
Jerry kills the middle solo and the interplay between him and Weir at the end is fantastic
