that's a solid groove
Big River

Hartford Civic Center

A crispy rocker w/Brent wailing on the B-3 and Jerry shredding that twang. Should be ranked much higher.
Greatest Story Ever Told
Oct. 14, 1983
Hartford Civic Center

Hot tight version that should be ranked higher
Alabama Getaway

Hartford Civic Center

This version rocks to be sure. But, while I am very tolerant of Jerry vocal gaffes, there are a few too many to rate this quite this highly.
It's All Over Now Baby Blue
Oct. 10, 1982
Frost Amphitheatre

This is a great Baby Blue and well worth listening to. But do yourself a favor and go listen to the actual #1 Baby Blue -- which is the power and majesty and poignancy that is 11-2-85 Richmond. Just check out Jerry's guitar tone.
