The Other One
April 9, 1989
Freedom Hall

A kaleidoscopic Other One is the apex of a very well-played second set.

Looks Like Rain
Dec. 27, 1977
Winterland Arena

Emphatic, even ferocious. Check it out.

Winterland Arena

Thunderous energy to complement the rest of this hard-rocking Winterland run.

Samson and Delilah
April 26, 1977
Capitol Theater

Not just a straightforward rocker. Keith adds an icy contrast to Jerry’s fire while the drummers up the tension.

Sparkling version. Worth your attention as you savor the perfect Oade AUD.

Around and Around
July 7, 1978
Red Rocks Amphitheatre

I’ll echo that. Around and Around is not one of my favorites, so believe me when I say this one is worth hearing.
Truckin'
June 16, 1990
Shoreline Amphitheatre

Crisp but hard-charging jam. LTGTR > Truckin’ > Touch is a hell of a way to open a show!
Uncle John's Band
Oct. 12, 1984
Augusta Civic Center

You think you know where it’s gonna go ... you don’t! This one really manages to surprise.
Terrapin Station
Nov. 2, 1977
Field House - Seneca College

This one is firmly in “oh my god” territory. Set aside any preconceived notions about the “sameness” of Terrapin in ’77 and go along for the ride.
Beat it on Down The Line
July 7, 1978
Red Rocks Amphitheatre

Gets the upvote for Keith’s sneaky-pete piano runs alone. Damn, what a show!
