P.N.E. Coliseum

Country rock pulsing with jazzy energy. One of the most exciting pre-hiatus versions.

Fierce yet loose. Lots of fun is being had and it's infectious.

A little extra mustard on this one.

Uniquely satisfying. Bob and Keith lock into a mind-meld that leads Jerry in some interesting directions.

Unique, trippy energy on the intro. Mellow vibes throughout.

Drums -> Space
July 4, 1989
Rich Stadium

Drums is inspired thoughout and Space has some interesting, jazzy changes before it starts meandering toward IWTYH.
They Love Each Other
May 25, 1977
The Mosque

Surprised nobody has mentioned Keith's solo yet. Some really fun runs in this one that I've never heard on other versions. Great version all around though.
The Other One
Aug. 5, 1971
Hollywood Palladium

Some interesting Weather Report Suite teases after the MAMU.
The Other One
Aug. 24, 1971
Auditorium Theatre

Wrong show.
Ramble On Rose
Oct. 10, 1976
Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum

Bob and Keith lend some agitated energy to the bridge that makes that makes this version feel special.
