Love this version. Nice slide playing through the main body of the song and some fine organ from Brent.

I love Jerry's singing throughout this fine show.

Swings and rocks. Seat-of-the-pants soloing and soulful feisty vocal.

It Must Have Been The Roses

Winterland Arena

Lovely lazy groove. Harmonies spot on and a desperate tired plea of a vocal. The Dusborne matrix is the one.

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.
