Jam Chart for Suzy Greenberg (16 entries)
| Date | City | Timing | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1987-02-13 | Johnson, VT | 9:18 | Debut. The Dude of Life on vocals. The Dude sounds kind of frustrated and angry in this version. |
| 1990-11-17 | Somerville, MA | 6:27 | Includes a full band "Low Rider" jam and subsequent tease from Trey. |
| 1991-09-27 | Rochester, NY | 5:12 | Great Page and Fish on this rocking version, who briefly drive the ship into out of bounds territory. Timing may be longer due to a cut in the recording. |
| 1995-10-31 | Rosemont, IL | 7:30 | Dave Grippo on alto saxophone, Don Glasgo on trombone, and Joey Sommerville on trumpet. Excellent version with a distinctly bluesy feel to it. |
| 1996-10-31 | Atlanta, GA | 6:28 | Karl Perazzo on percussion, Dave Grippo on saxophone, and Gary Gazaway on trumpet. "Born Under Punches" tease from Page. This excellent version has a completely different feel to it than 10/31/95, despite the similar addition of horns. This one has more of a jazz-like vibe to it, as well as strong percussion. |
| 1996-11-13 | Minneapolis, MN | 6:35 | -> to an excellent, wide ranging "Jam" follows "Suzy" proper. At first a typically rhythmic '96 jam with Trey on the mini percussion set up and Page jumping around different keyboards, it morphs into an upbeat, driving jam, even adding a little psychedelic edge near the ending > to "Prince Caspian." |
| 1996-12-06 | Las Vegas, NV | 9:17 | Guest artists include Les Claypool, Larry LaLonde, Courtney Gains, the Yodeling Cowgirls, and several Elvis impersonators. One of the Elvis impersonators leads a "Susie Q" jam at the end of "Suzy." |
| 1997-02-23 | Cortemaggiore, Italy | 8:24 | "Suzy" gets some funk! |
| 1999-07-25 | Noblesville, IN | 10:05 | Awesome version that Includes a jam based on Stevie Wonder's "I Wish" and a syncopated jam built around Page. |
| 2000-09-14 | Darien Center, NY | 9:19 | The band breaks into a fantastic rhythmic and slightly funky jam after the second verse which continues until 8:00. Following the final verse and customary conclusion, the band continues on, > to "Jam," an awesome "Suzy"-like set closing improv session. |
| 2003-12-28 | Miami, FL | 5:36 | Jarring, near heavy metal-like "Jam" breaks out after the second verse of "Suzy." Gnarly and raw, it eventually mellows into space before transitioning to "Theme From The Bottom." |
| 2004-06-17 | Brooklyn, NY | 18:23 | Multifaceted jam follows the final verse and refrain. At first rhythmic and plucky, it gradually becomes more intense, then grows slightly spacey, and intensifies again before finally settling with a > to "Axilla." |
| 2004-08-11 | Mansfield, MA | 9:10 | Most excellent version with incredible Page action on the B-3 during "Suzy" and great Fish. The band then extends the jam following the final verse with a -> to "DwD." |
| 2009-10-31 | Indio, CA | 11:37 | Sharon Jones and Saundra Williams on backup vocals, and Dave Guy, David Smith, and Tony Jarvis on trumpet, trombone, and saxophone, respectively. Outstanding, stretched out, straightforward version. |
| 2010-08-07 | Berkeley, CA | 10:42 | Band adds a nice 4 plus minute jam to the back end of "Suzy." Trey teases "Living After Midnight." > to "Slave." |
| 2016-09-02 | Commerce City, CO | 7:27 | Some great back and forth between the Chairman of the Boards and Fish and Trey on percussion results in an even more energized than typical version. |
