I Need A Miracle

Madison Square Garden

This is unusually smooth.

Capital Centre

I really love the 3/16-3/18 run. This Shakedown is an all-time great for me. It really swings hard and Jerry's first solo gives me goosebumps. I remember being an earnest music student and transcribing this solo. It's got some nice Lydian-mode runs.

A great opener for the 3/16, 3/17, 3/18 run. All 3 shows are solid and have many great performances.
Uncle John's Band

Vince quoting Pachelbel's Canon on a harpsichord patch, and Jerry repeating the figure in his solo.
Wharf Rat

Capital Centre

This is not a tune I usually like, it tends to be too slow and somber for my tastes. But this version has a nice mellow feel. Bruce adds a lot, he's great.
