Brent scats and Jerry's solos are absolutely blazing...real nice sleeper here!

Bird Song
Dec. 6, 1980
Mill Valley Recreation Center

This acoustic version is very relaxed due to the intimate setting. Not too jammed out but something about it is very soothing

Goin' Down The Road Feelin' Bad
July 17, 1976
Orpheum Theatre

This set is an emotional roller coaster, and this Goin' Down the Road is a sweet way to continue it. Keith shines, as he does all show.

Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain

Excellent version all around. transition jam is very fluid, it even has a dark star tease by hornsby!
Feelin' Groovy Jam
Nov. 2, 1969
Family Dog at the Great Highway

Is this even Feelin' Groovy? If so it's super unique and bright, listen to phil! Awesome dark star
Dancin' in the Streets
Nov. 8, 1970
Capitol Theater

Beautiful jam out of the main ten, and the tighten up here is particularly groovy with a crazy percussive climax, transitioning perfectly back into the main Dancin' riff. Up there with Harper, I believe
Weather Report Suite
June 28, 1974
Boston Garden

Wow, this jam really is a monster. It takes you to so many places without meandering too much, very high energy, Billy killing it...a new favorite
