Black Peter
April 24, 1978
Horton Field House - Illinois State University

Man, lucky NIU and ISU students! This one isn’t quite as good as the Dekalb 77 version but Jerry belts his heart out and shreds the solos
Not Fade Away
April 24, 1978
Horton Field House - Illinois State University

Only slow the latest two minutes, which i think melts perfectly into Black Peter. Pretty killer version imo
Big River
April 24, 1978
Horton Field House - Illinois State University

Keith is the man. This whole MAMU>Big River is so worth checking out from an all-around great show
Ramble On Rose
April 24, 1978
Horton Field House - Illinois State University

Maybe i just underestimate this song too much but this version absolutely smokes. One of my favorites ever for sure
Blow Away

Capital Centre

Best Brent song and best version imo. Rock star shit (in the best of ways)
