Jerry and Bobby are great here. Burning.

U.S. Blues (Wave That Flag)

The Summit

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.

New Minglewood Blues

Fox Theatre

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

Terrapin Station

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.

Great NMB. Listen to Keith. Sounds like Nicky Hopkins on Jig Saw Puzzle.
