2nd ever in a triple Dark Star sandwich. Choral singing, not fully developed but part of some of the best damned Dead you'll ever hear. Believe me.

Acoustic version, beautiful and tight. Don't miss the acoustic set in the rush to the late show.

Energetic and tight with great harmonies and strong soloing.

Damned strong version building up nicely to the towering triumph, "you've done better by me than I've done by you". Strong stuff.

Bursting energy ending the 1st set in blazing glory. The shout chorus is outrageously hot. Has to be one of Donna's best nights ever.

Acoustic bliss and the coolest vocal outro out there.

This whole show is filled with killer '70 gems. And Bobby, Jerry and Pig seem like they were all trying to out sing the other. Rare the show with such consistent vocal excellence. And this Candyman just blows me away again and again.

Sweet and short with Bobby sounding great.

Goes pretty far out, but never loses the intense melodicism and rhythmic driving that characterises this great show. A beauty.
