Take Me To The River

Pyramid Arena

Epic bust out in Memphis, the home of Al Green. Sorry, Talking Heads did not write the song. Firm believer this was the best run in 1995.

Another great acoustic version from 1970. Alot of heady stuff from these shows.

Its kind of a chill slowed version. Doesn't make it any less heady, though. Just different.

I have been waiting for this release for years. It was my second show I played from the 30 trips, just behind Cape Cod 79. The wait is finally over for these 2 important shows in GD history.

One of my favs. Musically, it is extremely well played, but also has one of the best vocal reprises that I know of.

This one really soars. Should be higher. It has some hot peaks. Not sure why this show doesn't get more love outside the Dew.

Just one of the many great treats this evening. Easily one of the best ever.
