The Spectrum

This is what LLR is all about -- silky harmonies with Bob and Donna at one of their vocal peaks, and Keith filling it in -- understated and exquisite.

Sugar Magnolia

Huntington Civic Center

Really laid back beginning out of Iko Iko, but Jerry's solo is somehow simultaneously fluid, mellow, AND intense. Superb finish, too!

Winterland Arena

If you like 3-18, you'll like this one, too; some vocal flubs, but the groove is perfect.

Horton Field House - Illinois State University

A decent Promised Land till the end, when the band just hits another gear completely, kicking off a superb show.

Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain
May 7, 1978
Field House - Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute

78's where it's at with Scarlet-Fire -- the band really takes it in so many directions throughout the year. This is a superb rendition, spot on . . .
He's Gone

Baltimore Civic Center

Great vocals AND absolutely superb jam into Truckin' = whole other level
Man Smart, Woman Smarter
Aug. 7, 1982
Alpine Valley Music Theatre

Hot, Hot, Hot! Great interplay with Brent really shining . . . best I've ever heard!
Truckin'
June 20, 1974
The Omni

Love when they do the Nobody's Fault But Mine jam, and this one is particularly fluid, coming off a huge Jerry solo sequence -- truly stellar.
Estimated Prophet

Huntington Civic Center

Bobby butchers the lyrics but the band is totally on for the remainder. Very hot!
