One of my favorite versions. Tight musically and great vocals by all. Oh yeah and Brent was a monster on keys that summer tour.

Keith is all over this version (and show).
Bird Song

Greek Theatre - University of California

Release it! This Bird Song here is a beaut. I love the Dancin'>Bird Song opening sequence. Now, that there is the way you open up a show when you mean business, which they did.. Excellent stuff.

Sweet indeed. Jerry always seemed to have it for this song in any era.
Cumberland Blues

Voc's and playing all in the proper syncopation. This was the song that made me realize this show was special.
