Jack Straw

Spartan Stadium - San Jose State University

Brent's 1st song with the band. Multiple Lesh bombs, rollicking drums, smoking Jerry licks, and impassioned vocals. Fine welcome to the band!

Goin' Down The Road Feelin' Bad

Melkweg

This is a lightening fast bowl of nose clams, played 100x the speed of hyperspace. Worth it just to hear how fast the boys ventured to take this on

Not the longest, by any stretch, but incredibly airy and beautiful for Bobby's B-day. Worth a listen for sure

Feelin' Groovy Jam

Springfield Civic Center

Super interesting jam out of a surprising Truckin' > NFBM jam > Drums > Feeling Groovy jam. The first few min of keys/drum/bass after drums is $$$$

Fox Theatre

Seriously high octane. A very subtle St Stephen lick by Jerry in the closing jam

Dusted off this show for the walk to work and morning's activities. Such a beautiful version here. Top shelf show all around

Oh hell yeah! Was just posting for the NFA - Excellent segment
The Music Never Stopped
April 24, 1978
Horton Field House - Illinois State University

Sorry I haven't commented on this earlier. Version is definitive - spacey, then very solid peak. Show has been one of my favorites from '78 since day 1. Excellent pick!
Casey Jones

Paramount Theatre

It cannot be overstated how incredible this jam is. Leaps and bounds the best Casey Jones around. Listen, rinse, repeat.
Here Comes Sunshine
Feb. 23, 1974
Winterland Arena

Phew, this one is a powerhouse. Different than a lot of HCSS. My go to version has always been 12/19/73, but I will go to this version for far different reasons. Had this show since jumpstreet, but never recalled this jam. Nice post!
