Knickerbocker Arena

Chugs along at a nice clip. It was included on Dozin' At the Knick, which I believe qualified it as heady.

Alpine Valley

1989 was a very good year for Birdsongs. This one deserves consideration along with 10/8/89 and 12/8/89.

Rarely does a "Promised Land" jump out as a notable version, but this one did while I was listening to the new Dave's Picks 12 filler disc.

Cotterell Gym - Colgate University

"Perhaps the best Bertha->Good Lovin' series, I've yet heard." -- Dick Latvala Concert Notes, included in Dave's Picks 12
Goin' Down The Road Feelin' Bad
April 26, 1972
