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).

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.

At 4:20 (really) of the SB there's an incredible Bobby-Jerry moment

Huge emotion in the singing and playing. Great drumming, great playing by Brent who shines throughout this remarkable show

Burning, relentless, scary. What more do you want to start a great show?
Ramble On Rose

Powerful singing and great interplay between Jerry and Phil during the solo
