Playin' In The Band
Nov. 24, 1972
Dallas Memorial Auditorium

Wow, seemingly a very overlooked gem. Tension and release, weaving effortlessly from mellow jam segments to soaring peaks, without screechy breakdown

Jahrhunderthalle

Moseying version. Jerry lays down buttery licks and Keith rides some nice fills. Zippidy doo dah tuning jam to follow

Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum

Great Saint, though the goods are in the MLB > Dear Prudence jam that follows. I can only imagine the level of blue balls in the house for that tease

I always liked this version. The boys gel together nicely for a peaky crescendo

Smooth stuff, Jerry gets on the good foot for this one. Nice
Greatest Story Ever Told

Portland Memorial Coliseum

Hot version - truth about keith, he rocks the boards nicely on this piece. Great post
Scarlet Begonias
July 19, 1974
Selland Arena

WOW dude, nailed it with the Donna description. She does belt out something like car tires in a parking garage, but this stand alone version is very solid. Dig Jerry's tone early on. I scooped this show a while back, but admittedly skipped right to the Eyes. Nice to hear this

The Spectrum
