Spectrum

Jerry goes liquid over the top at 4:37. Whole band on board with urgency on this one.

China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider
Oct. 10, 1982
Frost Amphitheatre

Bob gets big credit for stringing out the China Cat jam. Jerry gives him the all clear to the key patented rhythm riff but instead Bob comes down w hard chords and a vicious cross mash up, one more time around that has Phil thumping in, Jerry going ticky tocky logical lead over the top of it all and then just nailing it to the wall. Incredible!
Wharf Rat
Nov. 6, 1977
Broome County Arena

The music plays the band...everyone has the Wharf Rat march going. Listen to Jerry starting 7:00 mark. It’s just an effortless flow of ticky tocky logical notes that lead to a blistering peak. Truly a stunner.

Phil plucking away and high in the mix. Love it. Jerry goes liquid. Brilliant & tight. Woe Nelly there Donna! Screeeech!
Bird Song

Old Renaissance Faire Grounds

Jerry swingin’ the melody and riding the crest of a wave in the most masterful way.
China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider

Nice, long version. Jerry takes a solo between his and Bobs verses, stretching it out
