Jerry gets into some very unusual, far-out shit during this jam.

Jerry does everything in this Rider, especially in his final solo.

Awesome version. Listen to Jerry from the start and especially his solo (and Phil). This spring tour comes to life right here.

Jerry's singing on the verses is powerful. Bobby, Phil and Brent are great throughout.
Ship of Fools

Uptown Theater

Jerry really seems to be trying to find something in the solo, and takes it through the chorus and all over again, not quite finding it, but reaching some deep emotion. Also much prefer the clean guitar sound over the distorted that he used later on.
Ramble On Rose

Uptown Theatre

Bobby plays great and Jerry's vocals are deep and emotional. Who knew Jack was a river?
Lost Sailor -> Saint of Circumstance
Dec. 11, 1979
Soldiers & Sailors Memorial Hall

I love the slow jam into SOC, which is unique and maybe even a better way to play the tune. And the Estimated jam after is sick.

Love the extra long solo in Lady With a Fan. Drummers sound great throughout. This version has a deep, drowsy, hypnotic feel. Needs more than 2 votes.
