Fun stuff, especially Brent's organ; actually enjoyed the Good Lovin' it goes into more than I usually do with Bobby versions.

U.S. Blues (Wave That Flag)

Activity Center - University of Colorado

Part of a nice 1-2 punch encore; the final, high energy rockers really elevate this show.

New Minglewood Blues

Cameron Indoor Stadium

Energetic version sandwiched between a KILLER Row Jimmy and an interestingly tempoed Loser.

Ramble On Rose
Dec. 30, 1979
Oakland Auditorium

Nice pace and vocals, almost as rockin' as the (pinnacle) '78 versions, with some Brent keys thrown in.

Brown Eyed Women
Sept. 24, 1972
Palace Theatre

Nifty '72 BEW sets-up a lovely, exploratory PITB...hold on to your hats for set 2, with a criminally underrated top 10 of all-time Dark Star.

Brent’s comping is magical. Jerry having so much fun and so funky (check the video- I’ve never seen him move so much!)
