Deal

Olympiahalle

The first several songs of the show are AUD only, but the performances, as in this Deal, are note perfect.

Jack Straw
Sept. 14, 1974
Olympiahalle

As hot as the other blazing Jack Straws from late ’74. Don’t miss out on these wild first set performances.

It Must Have Been The Roses

Brimming with confidence, this version has noticeable snap /-

Samson and Delilah

I Need A Miracle

Fox Theatre

*Joani, sheesh.

Red Rocks Amphitheatre

*Serious* firepower, vocally as well as instrumentally. Check this out, folks.
Let It Grow
Oct. 2, 1977
Paramount Theatre

Very exploratory in parts! I can’t think of many late-’70s versions that are this adventurous.
Estimated Prophet
Nov. 4, 1979
Civic Center

Even by the standards of ’79, this is a *great* Estimated. Enjoy.
Sugar Magnolia
July 24, 1987
Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum Stadium

Sugar Mag seemingly was a good fit for the band’s strengths in ’87. It really shines in crisp renditions like this one.
