Not Fade Away
Aug. 30, 1980
The Spectrum

If you like the slow-groove versions of the early Brent era, like 11/2/1979, 5/15/80, and 5/8/81, you will really like this one. Jerry digs in hard.

Promised Land

Buckeye Lake Music Center

not many heady versions from 1993, but this one is worth hearing. Vince gets a lengthier piano solo, and both of Jerry's solos feel right at home.

You Win Again

Hill Auditorium

Jerry calls for Keith to take the solo during this version, which must have boosted Keith's confidence.

Selland Arena

Phil's playing makes this a standout version, like many of the performances at this show

Goin' Down The Road Feelin' Bad

School Gymnasium, S.U.N.Y.

Raw early version, the jamming in the final :30 hints at the song's potential, which twould be realized the following weekend in Port Chester.

Goin' Down The Road Feelin' Bad

Santa Rosa Fairgrounds

I love Jerry's vocal in addition to the extra jams on the tail of this version
Wharf Rat
Oct. 21, 1973
Omaha Civic Auditorium

After a harsh cut @ 7:50 excising the final "got up and wandered" verse, there's a very pleasant 2:50 outro jam. Stately and grand, indeed.

Civic Arena

"And my best friend, my drummer, won't even tell me what it is I dropped" LOL
Eyes Of The World

Hampton Coliseum

Brent's piano sounds great here, and of course an inspired Jerry carries everyone's troubles away
