Alpine Valley Music Theatre

In this notoriously shaky year there are often gems to be found among the train wreckage. This BEW is an example. Jerry's solo is spot on

Charlotte Coliseum

Jerry works very hard to put this one over the top. Check out his last solo

Brother Esau

Hartford Civic Center

They almost never got this song right, so it's no wonder they stopped playing it. This time they did. Bobby doesn't oversing, drummers are on it.

Phil kills it

Broome County Arena

Love how Bobby climbs to the peak. Great jam after too.
Sugaree
May 9, 1979
Broome County Arena

Huge 20-minute version. Jerry is full of ideas and loose and free. Bobby plays a great slide riff at almost 12 minutes in.
Stagger Lee
May 8, 1979
Recreation Hall - Penn State University

Another third chorus in the solo and Jerry rips it up
Estimated Prophet
May 4, 1979
Hampton Coliseum

Jerry seizes on an interesting theme in the solo and tears it up in the coda.
