Listen to the SBD of this for a great example of Bobby's subtle, beautiful playing

Listen to how Jerry begins the second chorus of his solo. Brilliant. Mickey drives this hard too. Heat builds up in the set leading to this.

Henry J. Kaiser Convention Center

Solid version of this tune. Less of a trainwreck when played later in the set it seems.

First great post-coma moment. Phil is unbelievable throughout. Jerry's in it to win it. Check the SBD.

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

The intro has a Dark Star vibe. Great version.
U.S. Blues (Wave That Flag)

Fantastic, raucous version. Great solo. Great slide playing by Bobby (you heard me right).

Heavy, intense version. Listen to Phil as well as Jerry in the jam.

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.
