Sept. 3, 1988
Capital Centre

Smokin' hot version in its early pairing with Foolish Heart. This whole unusual 2nd set rips!

Cameron Indoor Stadium, Duke U

Fully jammed out vocal version in underrated jam from late '73...probably the peak period for NFBM...

Easy Wind

Fillmore East (Late Show)

Rippin' Easy Wind with TC high in the mix. This whole show is underrated.

Sugaree

Golden Hall, Community Concourse

Powerhouse '78 version...Jerry's WAY into it. Keith's late-era approach to the song has changed so much...he just pounds it out instead of ticklin'.
Eyes Of The World

Frost Amphitheatre

LOVE this one! beautifully paced, crystalline solos
Eyes Of The World

The Omni

This one is a new discovery for me. This might actually be my #2...behind the one from two days earlier. Slipknot out of the outro jam...really jazzy and nice.
Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain
June 13, 1994
Memorial Stadium

I was there. I remember not being all that impressed. Maybe it was the sound at these shows? The combination of Cutler's live mix and Jerry's new rig. Listening to the tapes, though...what I wouldn't give...
The Eleven
June 7, 1969
Fillmore West

WOW. This one's a monster!
