One of the best Jerry live releases ever!!!!, August 5, 2010
This review is from: Pure Jerry: Bay Area 1978 (Audio CD)
I'm surprised that no one else has reviewed this classic yet. This release is made up of usable songs from arun of four shows in the Bay Area in 1978 (2/18/78 Veterans Memorial Aud. 2/19/78 Santa Cruz Civic Aud. 6/10/78 Keystone Berkeley and 6/18/78 Keystone Palo Alto). The lineup consisted of Jerry and John with Keith and Donna plus Maria Muldaur and Buzz Buchanan. The playing is top notch and is one of the best Jerry releases EVER!!!! From the rocking Mystery Train opener to the 30 minute jam version of Don't Let Go to great laid back versions of Mission In The Rain and Simple Twist Of Fate and ending with a nice long version of Leon Russell/Bonnie Bramlett's Lonesome And A Long Way From Home. If you're going to own a Jerry release or looking for a place to start, this is it.
