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.

Downs of Santa Fe

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.

Eyes Of The World
July 31, 1974
Dillon Stadium

While I don't think this is among the strongest of the year, the end jam sequence is amazing (it really shone all year long).
Weather Report Suite
July 31, 1974
Dillon Stadium

The climactic Let It Grow jam seems to hint at Caution... or at least I would describe it as Caution-esque. Only wish it were longer.
Big River
July 31, 1974
Dillon Stadium

What Keith and Jerry and Phil achieve during the final bridge is mind-scrambling -- showcases the best of the '74 sound.
To Lay Me Down
July 31, 1974
Dillon Stadium

Extraordinary phrasing and unfaltering execution elevates this version of a song I don't always enjoy. I loved this.
Sugaree
Sept. 6, 1980
State Fairgrounds

It's a cliche to say it... but I'm astonished this one isn't ranked higher. This is an explosive Sugaree.
