Anyone have some nominations?
Go thru phases where i am into certain years, etc. and been really into Brent's singin & playing lately.
Suggestions?
If I had to pick, randomly, a solo of Brent's that gets me EVERY time, it would be the joyous display off the "Row Jimmy" on "Dozin' at the Knick"! It gets me EVERY time that I play it! and Jerry uses it to go into a second sublime solo that's orgasmic and maudlin at the same time. Check it out!
Blow Away
David Gans made a best of Brent after he died and played it on KPFA. It had the most incredible Shakedown Street on it. I was listening to Shakedown from 4/6/82,and it is very nice and crackling with energy. I like 5/13/83 Greek Theater as one of my favorite shows with the boys. Jerry really dug Brent!!!!!!!! PS Great Other One with Brent on Hammond B3!!!!!!!!
Check out 7/15/84,27 years ago today! Listened to Birdsong,which on my SBD copy has Jerry a little low in mix,so you can really hear Brent well! Also all of set 2 is great especially pre-drums. ENJOY!
what about those Buffalo shows...86?
7/16/90, my last Brent show.

4-15-89 Brent sings a stunning Blow Away. In the end he says, Give it just a fucking minute & it'll blow away. He totally goes off. I think it's from 82 on that he starts swearing. I love Brent! I would love to trade anyone here for their favorite Brent shows. I have a lot to trade. dancingdeadbears@yahoo.com
