Ramble On Rose

Metropolitan Sports Center

Sharp, delightful version. Supercharged Keith’s melodic lines will keep you guessing.

Do not miss! Jerry and Billy delicately dance across this while Phil subtly challenges the stability.

Very cohesive version with a noticeable snap. And Phil’s prominent in the recording.

Don’t miss this wild, careening thrill ride. Start at Playin’ to get the full effect.

Drums -> Space

Downs of Santa Fe

Vivid Drums followed by extraordinary Space: a bright, melodic Bob and Jerry jam, then bicycle horns and a rich TOO intro jam.

Foolish Heart
March 20, 1991
Capital Centre

Just enchanting. Jerry and Bruce harmonize on a unique, trancelike outro that itself is a clever variation on the signature riff(s).
Not Fade Away
Aug. 30, 1980
The Spectrum

Are you kidding me?! Hot! August - September ’80 is terrific, one of the brightest points of the entire decade.
Me and My Uncle
May 24, 1972
Strand Lyceum

Jerry lets himself get carried away to great results.
Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain
July 4, 1990
Sandstone Amphitheatre

The transition is abrupt, and Jer messes up some of the lyrics. If you can get past that, this is a great version! Both halves are played with panache and are stuffed with interesting passages.
The Other One
Feb. 23, 1974
Winterland Arena

My favorite thing about this version is listening to Keith synthesize Jerry's brand-new Slipknot lines on the fly.
