Thanks to George Prescott in Deadbase 50 for pointing this out. What a sublime solo, despite average sound quality.

Great Jerry/Brent vocals and some really nice organ playing.

Greek Theatre, U. Of California

A lush slow-build16-minute intro to The Other One that builds the tension to an almost unbearable degree.

Storming opener from a strong '86 show that leads into a sweet Peggy-O.

Just brought a tear to my eye. In a good way.

Great call. Lovely vocal.

Spot on, Carrion. Jed with attitude.
Jack Straw

Nassau Coliseum

A Jack Straw for the ages. Jerry's cookin' and the others keep up all the way into a well-underrated 'Franklin's'. Singing great on both.
Playin' In The Band
Aug. 6, 1974
Roosevelt Stadium

Jerry playing like Coltrane over early 70s Miles. Everyone takes a turn in leading the jam at some point. Dead at their dancingest. Just been chucked out of bed after leg-jiggling too much with the headphones on.
