Gotta add the harmony lines in Cassidy to the list and the fills on Bertha.

Bravo! +1,000,000!!!

Ive been playing some Bobby-esque Bertha fills and they are so much fun and just sound awesome.

+1 on the 73-74 halfsteps. Dick's Picks Vol. 1 (12-19-73) was the first time I really heard bobby. He's up high in the mix on that one, and shining brightly.

great work by bobby on the half-step and WRS.

I always thought that it sounds like this song evolved into Lost Sailor!!!

Bobby was way out in front in the 90's. I think that was Jerry turning himself down though.

CT, off of the Skulls and Roses on Bertha, do you have a handle on Bobby's fill for the lyric:

"I wondered if you cared." I have never been able to reproduce that one.

Yas Yaaas, Hard to Handle and Bird Song are great Bob fun to play anyway. More manageable for me anyway'

The bobby mix is great in the GD movie sountrack.

i love strong bobby mixes in late 70's BEW's. 12-27-77 pops in my mind. he does such melodic progressions over jerry's progressions in that song.
