Bob is adding little lyrical flourishes all night and this is no exception, I hope you're damn well satisfied! Nice keyboards, nice show overall.

The Music Never Stopped
Jan. 25, 1993
Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum

Always love a TMNS that has that kind of marching, militaristic rhythm near the end of the jam.... this has it, 7th May '77 has it too (other fave TMNS). Never noticed a flub, if it was a flub then I guess I just enjoyed the flub.
Row Jimmy

McArthur Court, U of Oregon

Jed, Jack and Jimmy... a fine body of men, make this first set one for the ages. This is unique, poor Jimmy isn't in a little rowboat any more, but sweating at the oars of a slave galleon. The jam has a great and portentous heaviness.
Werewolves of London

Veterans Memorial Auditorium

The first and best, Jerry and Donna are having a whale of a time. I don't care if it's sloppy, never noticed, makes me smile that's the most important thing.

This is incredible, cathedral bells are ringing out in the jam....
Me and My Uncle
Nov. 6, 1977
Broome County Arena

Hard to pick out favourite Uncles, from the multitudes. But this has always stood out for me. never really picked up on the disco feel that others have commented on... but it leaves the dead asses of most other versions there by the side of the road.
