Ship of Fools

Greek Theatre, U. Of California

Part of a great overall show at the Greek. I don't necessarily seek out SOF, but JG is on point on this one, both in his playing and vocals.

1981 is chock full of good Altheas, and this is one. A bunch of cool JG riffs - surprised this isn't listed. Solid show.

Nassau Coliseum

Really love early Brent era Stellas (‘79-82). Jerry is excellent throughout this show, and this Stella is no exception. Could be a tad longer though.

This entire show needs more love on here. Some cool Jerry guitar on this.

Red Rocks Amphitheater

Love both the '82 & '83 Red Rocks runs, and each includes a great Loser. 7.29.82 & 9.7.83. This is a heater - Jerry rocks the big solo. Check her out!

Capitol Theater

Perfect positioning - sounds really good coming out of that DS>Wharf Rat>Beautiful Jam/DS. As others have said. It's hard to list favorite MAMUs bc there are so many that sound similar, but this one is top tier.

Fantastic. 72 and 82 are my fave years for the song.

Absolutely my fave 92 show.

I might even like 81/82 Bird Songs better than what most consider the best year for the song, 1972. Stellar.
