Bobby tells us "it''s time for your Sunday sermon" but it's Brent that's all over this smoking version.

Not on Archive but one hell of a barnburner. Check Youtube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EmN0mFHDH2w

Following a rare St Stephen, they're pulling out all the stops in an explosively cacophonous mid jam

Samson and Delilah
Oct. 28, 1979
Cape Cod Coliseum
Not as Brentalicious as some 80's versions but Jerry's tapped into some serious cosmic energy here. A personal favorite.
China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider

Double post due to malfunctioning mouse.........which I'll replace one of these days ;)
China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider
Oct. 28, 1979
Cape Cod Coliseum
This really is an EPIC China-Rider. The Rider transition starts about 4 and a half minutes into China and that's where the magic kicks up a notch. If you can listen with seamless playback, we've basically got an 11+ minute IKYR jam here.
Lost Sailor -> Saint of Circumstance
Oct. 10, 1982
Frost Amphitheatre
Never used to be a Sailor>Saint fan until this show. Far as I can tell, the trio of Crazy Fingers>Sailor>Saint, happened only twice, with this being the first and (imo) best. Pity it didn't happen more often because it worked fantastically here....here.

Nice early Deal and A big +1 for sending me back to the Bowl to discover that a SBD's been posted for this historic show!
