Next, from a year later in Rochester, NY, on 3/30/73, we have the second set jam featuring Truckin'> Jam> Space> Eyes Of The World> Not Fade Away > Goin' Down The Road Feeling Bad > One More Saturday Night.
Lastly this week, from 3/24/91 in Albany, we have the start of the second set, featuring Samson And Delilah ; China Cat Sunflower > I Know You Rider ; Looks Like Rain ; He's Gone.
Be sure to stop by next week for more music from the vault.

Bobby shows his stuff, Pig in good voice, Jerry playing pedal steel and Phil on backing vocals on LLR! Nice 1972 selection. I can think of a few other songs that the pedal steel could have benefited.
Cheers
