Ramble On Rose

Folsom Field

Jerry means every note in this solo. Love the false harmonics and power chords.

Mexicali Blues

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

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.

I Just Wanna Make Love To You

Brent sings this great and Jerry totally kills it
Bird Song

Damn, here I am commenting on this again?? This a sick, psychedelic Bird Song with Bobby leading the charge. Breaks down into pure space in multiple places. No wonder they didn't play Dark Star back then, they didn't need to.

San Diego International Sports Arena

Fantastic jam into The Other One. Phil is brilliant.
Ramble On Rose

Civic Center

Keith sounds amazing on this. Love the little lick he plays after "Just like Jack and Jill." One of the best versions I've heard
Playin' In The Band

Civic Center

Scary jam demands that you pay attention. You can't run away from it.
