Nassau Coliseum

Unusual, long Space for the era. Fans of Feedback will enjoy this one.

Drums -> Space
Feb. 17, 1982
Warfield Theater

Carnival of sounds and textures. Wild stuff.

U.S. Blues (Wave That Flag)
Sept. 10, 1974
Alexandra Palace

Pummeling version with Phil cranked UP in the mix.

Kiel Auditorium

The whole band creates a seamless, burbling groove. (Listen for Phil pushing through the small spaces Bobby leaves.) Mesmerizing.

The Race Is On

Kiel Auditorium

The short, country-style numbers sound so good in this set. There's a lot of good music in this show even before the big jams arrive.

Terrapin Station
Aug. 4, 1982
Kiel Auditorium

This is an exceptionally well-played Terrapin even before they get to the jam. With the jam, this is a reasonable contender for the Top 25. Brent shows off his jazz chops throughout.
Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain
Dec. 3, 1979
Uptown Theatre

Commenting purely on the audio: Anyone checking out this show should hear the Dusborne matrix, which is much livelier and more detailed than the muddy-sounding Dave’s Picks release.
To Lay Me Down
Nov. 20, 1973
Denver Coliseum

Altogether almost faultless, this one climaxes nicely with Jerry’s solo.
Black Throated Wind
Nov. 20, 1973
Denver Coliseum

Fabulous performance all around!
Loser
June 9, 1977
Winterland Arena

The dynamics and attention to detail really impress. What a first set!
