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.

One of the last versions in A? It was transposed to C at some point during October ’77, never to return to its original key. Anyway, I always liked it better in A. Well-played version, too.

The Mosque

Almost too perfect, at least till a small Jerry slip-up at the end. Heavenly.
Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain
April 16, 1978
Huntington Civic Center

Impressive sense of detail throughout, plus all the big Technicolor moments you expect from spring ’78 really deliver here.
Sugar Magnolia

The Spectrum

Caps a post-drums sequence that the band rocks like they really mean it. Great stuff.
Wharf Rat

Omaha Civic Auditorium

Jerry’s last solo is notably fierce and forceful.
