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.

Awesome. David Murray starts jamming fantastically about halfway through.

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.

The Music Never Stopped
Oct. 1, 1977
Paramount Theatre

Jerry shreds the roof off the joint, then steps back, takes a breath, and blows the roof off the place even more!!!! This tune sometimes suffers from the band never quite being in sync with Jerry as he rips through the coda jam…. They sometimes miss the transitions that need to happen to make this just near exactly perfect…. But 77 was a great year for this tune and this might be the best of the year, despite early vocal stuff, etc…….
