Great early version

He's Gone
Oct. 27, 1973
Indianapolis State Fair Coliseum

Beautiful 73 version, outro jam is especially juicy. Leads into a Truckin’ that is equally underrated.

Terrapin Station
May 11, 1980
Cumberland County Civic Center

A red-hot rock n’ roll Terrapin executed with precision and passion. This is a bombastic masterpiece and the best version I’ve come across in ages. As always, listen to the matrix recording and crank it up! The boys were on fire this night.
Black Peter
Dec. 26, 1981
Oakland Auditorium

It’s already such a great Black Peter but then you get this crazy, unique jazzy jam at the end. Unlike any other version.
The Eleven
Dec. 26, 1981
Oakland Auditorium

There’s a gentle build to the actual Eleven jam that is just...gorgeous. Emotive and unique, and the Eleven part is fiery stuff
Estimated Prophet
Dec. 26, 1981
Oakland Auditorium

Following an equally astounding Scarlet>Fire, this Estimated really brings the goods. Faster than your average version, not a missed note, and some godlike interplay between the boys. Don’t miss this one.
Drums -> Space
Jan. 11, 1978
Shrine Auditorium

A short drums segment with Phil that leads into an extended jazzy full band jam before St. Stephen. Unique and beautiful.
