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.

Ramble On Rose

Paramount Theatre

Intense, heartfelt, and beautifully sung by all. One of the better late ’70s versions I’ve heard.
Eyes Of The World

Red Rocks Amphitheatre

Phil’s bombs, Bobby’s harmonics, Brent’s intricately darting runs, Jerry letting himself be drawn Out, finally Rhythm Devils-enhanced Space ... it’s all here. Wow.

Fresh and intriguing outro jam here! Don’t just listen to the S>F.

I am not surprised to see this version at the top. I was really charmed by Brent's soloing in this, but the whole performance is very well done.
Playin' In The Band

Boston Music Hall

Holy. Smokes. Wickedly psychedelic without ever losing precision, clarity, or focus. One of Keith’s most creative performances ever, maybe? Jerry is conversational and in total command. The ensemble playing is stunning. Don’t hesitate. Just listen.
