They Love Each Other
Oct. 14, 1983
Hartford Civic Center

Jerry and Brent's interplay is contagious as the band joins the organic groove. Jerry's beat sounding vocals add to this suprisingly...

Weirs lays down the subtle sad slide guitar for the bros in far away Egypt. Great Row Jimmy vibe...

Jerry's solos groove with this great Foxtrot Ballroom melody and the band just swings along with him. So Perfect!!

The nastiest '74 psychedelic jazzy funkyness. Dirty Harry's worst nightmare.

Playin' In The Band
Sept. 11, 1974
Alexandra Palace

The expanded articulation and nuanced interplay are gorgeous. The flow of the jam never really slows down or runs out of ideas. This Playin' is a marathon of jazzy jamming brilliance. One of the best of the '74, maybe one of the best all-time...
Playin' In The Band
Nov. 15, 1972
Oklahoma City Music Hall

This is a balls out powerhouse performance that turns the amps up to 11, but never loses it's focus. Billy is driving this jam, but Phil and Jerry really keep the fire burning. A 1/2 hour of next level. An absolute Hall of Fame PITB!
High Time
Feb. 17, 1979
Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum

Catches the High Time vibe just right, just what I needed right now...
Eyes Of The World
June 10, 1990
