Space
Sept. 4, 1979
Madison Square Garden

Super heady, effects-drenched Space that suggests what a fall ’79 Dark Star might’ve sounded like.

Promised Land
Feb. 22, 1974
Winterland Arena

This really gets cookin’! Keith, Billy, and Jerry seem to be playing little rhythmic games, switching up the accents in interesting ways.

Goin' Down The Road Feelin' Bad

Splendid set closer with delightfully boisterous contributions from Keith and a permeating feeling of real joy.

Sweetly melodic outro, well-played. I really enjoyed this Space > Other One > Stella.

Forceful and confident, with rowdy playing from Bobby and Brent in particular.

Black Peter
Dec. 14, 1971
Hill Auditorium

Breathtaking dynamics on display. Exquisitely expressive.
Ship of Fools
July 16, 1990
Rich Stadium

What was it about Buffalo and “Ship of Fools”?
The Other One
Jan. 8, 1978
Golden Hall, Community Concourse

Akin to the previous show’s Dancin’, it’s very exploratory for the year.
Uncle John's Band
Dec. 1, 1973
Music Hall

To spell it out: Jerry and Billy, in particular, play the UJB intro in the style of a Playin’ jam. It’s awesome. Listen now!
Space
Oct. 5, 1984
Charlotte Coliseum
