Aug. 19, 1980
Uptown Theatre

Jerry's solos were howling and crackling with energy here.

Days Between

Deer Creek Music Center

Starts out a little muddy, Jerry's flubbing lyrics a bit. But it still stands out and he warms up to have the song be where it should be.

The Other One
March 28, 1988
Hampton Coliseum

This one was an onslaught of brute force. Everyone on the same page, charging forward, driving collectively.

This one has an intense jam out! It gets my vote because it's the one I'm currently listening to!

Playin' In The Band

Grand Prix Racecourse

They are so tight and focused... I love how well I can hear the interplay with Jerry and Bob. Basically everyone in the band!
It's All Over Now Baby Blue

McNichols Arena

Any Baby Blue is a good Baby Blue.
China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider
May 3, 1972
Olympia Theater

This is truly one of the finest I Know You Riders. Their genuine energy conveys happiness and love. The harmonies are so tight.
Playin' In The Band
Sept. 25, 1980
Warfield Theater

This one has me bouncing around. I think of 1972-74 as peak Playin' years. This one has a great attack.
Deal
Sept. 25, 1980
Warfield Theater

The aud of this shows off how dynamic the band could be on Deal. And it gets appropriately ragey... with the crowd clapping in appreciation and love. Again, Deal is making a comeback from one of my least like songs!
