Good Lovin'
Dec. 9, 1979
Kiel Auditorium
Closes a fantastic post-drums-space sequence. Just an all-around good one that benefits from the incredible momentum beforehand.

Promised Land

Kiel Auditorium
Charged up with energy coming out of the hot Alabama opener. They really go after this one, and makes it stand out. Great stuff!

Deal
Dec. 9, 1979
Kiel Auditorium
Loads of fun! Like versions from '79, it's an interesting hybrid version - the energy of 80's versions but minus the second solo. Still kicks, though!

Bertha
Dec. 9, 1979
Kiel Auditorium
I always liked the late-second-set placement of Bertha in the early Brent era. This one smokes - Brent's keys are fiery and Jerry destroys the solo.

I Need A Miracle
Dec. 9, 1979
Kiel Auditorium
The menacing transition out of Black Peter is only matched by Bobby attacking the mic like a rabid dog. The post-drums/space of this show is killer.

I Need A Miracle
July 4, 1986
Rich Stadium
Nice and aggressive - great version coming hot on the heels of a good rendition of The Wheel.
You Win Again
Nov. 20, 1971
Pauley Pavilion
That’s a great way of putting it! I’ve always thought they totally nailed this song when playing it, but could never put my finger on why it was so good. The way you describe it, the magic might just be in the solo! At the very least, that’s what makes this particular version stand out.
Cassidy

Baltimore Civic Center
"They don't trust me," remarks Bobby after a goofy on-stage discussion about how many bars the jam has. And yet, it's a HOT version with a great jam.
New Minglewood Blues
Oct. 15, 1983
Civic Center
I like how Bobby catches himself here - "New Yor...uh...New England fillies." Yeah, us Heads in Maine aren't sure if Connecticut is in New York or New England either. ;D
Drums -> Space
Oct. 14, 1994
Madison Square Garden
Miles Davis' "In a Silent Way" is quoted during the transition between Drums and Space. It's a really neat interpolation!
