Madison Square Garden

Jerry flubs the cheap hotel, but it's OK. His guitar makes up for it. Check out last couple minutes. Builds beautifully. Just a notch below 9/19.

Scorching. Just flipping through the 1990 Garden run. Surprised this ain't here already. Bruce's 1st official night as a member of the band.

Weird one for sure. Starts as Spanish Jam, Bobby has a great notion, throws in O1 lyrics. Always good pair. Into Stellar Stella Blue-GDTRFB-Around...

Jerry's guitar scorches throughout, with genuine pin drop moments, followed by sweeping beauty. Coda laments for Stella are short but sweet.

Scorching coda to an amazing Truckin'-NFA-GDTRFB. Whole show is pretty historic.....

Lovely!! Bobby (on the slide) starts chasing Jerry….. Jerry just picks up the pace, and Bobby does his best to keep up!!

And yet….. Spencer Davis’ guitar sounds a bit like Jorma!?! Lol! Very good! Crazy fun show! And yeah… With Bruce and Brent. Very very cool!

Portland Memorial Coliseum

The bridge jam is classic ‘74, but what might set this apart from a lot of others at the time is Jerry’s “headlight roar,” which is so reminiscent of the 80s…..
