Weir insists it’s time for another cowboy song. “This one rose straight to the top of the charts, of course we didn’t do it” great, consistent one

Donna lets out the most insane scream I’ve ever heard and the crowd goes wild lol. Fun one with harmonica action

One of those “surprised not to see this here” moments. A short, less soaring one than many this period, but fun nonetheless

Much, much agreed^^ skipping a lot of '77 performances of TOO is to miss a lot of real gold. They aren't as fleshed out as they were in earlier years at this point, but they are really special.

After all these years, I still haven't been able to figure out what's that droning sound that whirs in and out lowly throughout the early versions, particularly this one. Is that Bob? Jerry? Sounds much more like Bob's style. Any help?

God, I miss the first time I heard this. I couldn't believe how much atmosphere had been captured in this. Haunting performance. Dreadful, almost.
