Caution
March 12, 1966
Danish Center

Pigpen drives hard here, harmonica all the way. Early fireball, only giving us a glimpse of what Caution would turn into in only a year!

Really bluesy, love the Guild Starfire sound Jer had here. Flows into a groovy early Caution.

Playin' In The Band

Jazz. Just plain jazz. Keith really shines together with Billy on this one, they carry you away in the nicest way. How the he** is this not listed?

China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider

Winterland Arena

Bill jazzes on throughout the transition, and the jam goes just a little bit furhter than before. Cool version with a laid back IKYR.

Good Lovin'
March 5, 1972
Winterland Arena

First MLB, and it's certainly well fitted. A wild Good Lovin' with some of the same gusto they showed during the Europe '72 versions. Miller has done a fantastic job here, though a pristine SBD out of nowhere would be appreciated. a (GOOD) Good Lovin'!
The Other One
Nov. 7, 1971
Harding Theatre

I agree darkstar67, it's up there for me too. The segue is note-perfect, and the jamming is loose but onpoint.
Me and My Uncle
Nov. 7, 1971
Harding Theatre

Spotless, dusty and rugged this MAMU comes galloping out of a classic TOO post-verse space. FLAWLESS sandwich. Keiths honky-tonk sound is the icing on the cake. Definitive +1!
Dancin' in the Streets
June 19, 1976
Capitol Theatre

The way the band segues into Dancin' beneath Jerry is amazing. Lovely concert from an underrated year.
Truckin'

Legion Stadium
