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.

Don’t miss this wild, careening thrill ride. Start at Playin’ to get the full effect.

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.

As if hypnotized by the groove, the band brings the jam down to a quiet plane before ratcheting up for the conclusion.
Samson and Delilah

Boston Garden

I really like the dual keyboard action in this one. While Bruce is pure Old Dominion roll, Vince rocks, sounding agreeably like Garth Hudson. Good showcase for the era.

The midsong jam in G didn’t do much for me, but the outro is the best kind of midified chaos.

This is a worthy version. Very primal-sounding at points.
