Beat it on Down The Line
June 28, 1974
Boston Garden

Not just high-energy but a little manic and dangerous. Listen for some sneaky fills by Keith.

Carter-Finley Stadium

Some very impressive jamming in this Playin' > Uncle John's > Playin' from Brent's last month on the road.

Soulful outro in perfect five-part counterpoint.

Wild, anarchic jam before the transition the transition back to NFA, replete with Jerry harmonics and Phil bombs.

Shakedown Street

Rosemont Horizon

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
Sept. 22, 1991
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.
Estimated Prophet
July 22, 1990
World Music Theater

The midsong jam in G didn’t do much for me, but the outro is the best kind of midified chaos.
Goin' Down The Road Feelin' Bad
Sept. 4, 1980
Providence Civic Center

Whoa.
The Other One
Sept. 4, 1980
Providence Civic Center

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