Warfield Theater

Hot outro resolves into a brief contemplative space before yielding to Drums.

Nassau Coliseum

Sparkling, energetic version. The first set of the Nassau run is a great one!

Its All Over Now

Winterland Arena

Grooves smartly with excellent contributions from each member. The whole first set is hot and worth a listen.

Jerry and Donna sound great in this uptempo version. Jerry's solo smokes too, of course.

Sweet bluesy outro jam. Spring ’78 was very good to poor Peter.

China Doll

Downs of Santa Fe

I love the ’83-style pre-Drums China Dolls. Jerry and Phil bail on the jam pretty quickly, but then we get to enjoy some fine, harmonically adventurous Bobby, Brent, and Rhythm Devils jamming. Great stuff.

Auditorium Theatre

Uptempo but not rushed, effervescent, and clean as a whistle. There are a ton of great May '77 Berthas, and this is one of them. Don't miss it.
Friend of the Devil
May 13, 1977
Auditorium Theatre

Keith’s smoooooth chromatic scale entry into his solo must be heard to be believed.
One More Saturday Night
May 13, 1977
Auditorium Theatre

Apparently the version on the box set is from 5/28/77, as the 5/13 tape was irreparably damaged. The Archive links are truly 5/13, though.
Goin' Down The Road Feelin' Bad
May 13, 1977
Auditorium Theatre

It should be noted that the version on the box set is from 6/8/77, as the 5/13 tape is damaged at this point. The Archive links are truly 5/13, however.
