Victim Or The Crime
Sept. 3, 1988
Capital Centre

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

Nobody's Fault But Mine
Dec. 8, 1973
Cameron Indoor Stadium, Duke U

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

Easy Wind
Jan. 2, 1970
Fillmore East (Late Show)

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

Check out the beautiful remaster on the Long Strange Trip soundtrack!
Help On The Way > Slipknot > Franklin's Tower
May 5, 1990
California State University Dominguez Hills

I was there. A beautiful, hot SoCal afternoon on a soccer field...so many firsts for me at this show. H>S>F was a little rough, but still satisfied...
Foolish Heart
March 20, 1991
Capital Centre

I had forgotten how hard Jerry goes off at the end of this one, and I was there!
Ship of Fools
March 16, 1990
Capital Centre

This one is sweet. Jerry doesn't nail all the lyrics perfectly, but he was able to put this song over emotionally so much better by this point. Really nice solo, too. Everybody's on board.
China Doll
Feb. 9, 1973
Roscoe Maples Pavilion - Stanford University

This one is beautiful. Perfect tempo, extraordinary bridge/solo, tight harmonies...a debut that just nails it.
