Jerry's in primal Viola Lee mode more than per country twang.

Selland Arena

What an ending jam. Jerry improvises astonishing structures with ease and fluency. The others are right there with him.

Jerry's solo is so articulate -- immaculately constructed. Some very fine stuff.

Nassau Coliseum

Not my favorite song, but there's something pretty special about this crisp and confident version. Nice!
Looks Like Rain

Memorial Coliseum

Just incredible. This very creative, spontaneous version has any energy of its own.
New Minglewood Blues
May 17, 1977
Memorial Coliseum

Feisty version from a feisty show. Tuscaloosa is the fall '77-type show of spring '77.

A very strong, well-jammed version for the era.

Great jamming in the outro, and a lot of fire in the song proper. Terrific second set opener.
