Horton Field House - Illinois State University

Stayin' Alive teases carried over from Me and My Uncle. Ballsy version

Me and My Uncle
April 24, 1978
Horton Field House - Illinois State University

Stayin' Alive tease to open and significant teases by Keith throughout. Most interesting version by far - (teases continue into a romping Big River)

Truckin'
May 9, 1979
Broome County Arena

Gigantic early peak, followed by high energy band interplay, concluded with some jacked up speedy noodling. Hard to ask for more

Broome County Arena

End jam has some of the best Bobby/Jerry interplay I can recall - truly incredible. Leads into a heart stopping Truckin'. Peep it

Morning Dew

Nassau Coliseum

I am not really a fan of this era, but this version is incredible. Patient build, beautiful execution. Such emotive playing
Uncle John's Band
May 25, 1972
Strand Lyceum

Yup, classic. My favorite (if forced to choose)
Uncle John's Band
May 21, 1982
Greek Theatre, U. Of California

I scooped this show not too long ago. This version is certainly one of the most exploratory I know of. Jam gets dicey in the later minutes - she's a deep cut.
Sugaree
May 28, 1977
Hartford Civic Center

Yeah, this one definitely deserves dap. Haven't spun in a minute - holds up fantastically!
Greatest Story Ever Told
March 26, 1973
Baltimore Civic Center

Yup, another hot version for a hot show
