Really Heads? Not here yet? 21 minutes of super fine hotandheady jam. Blazing hot, capping off a year of just outrageous Playin' playing.

Don't know the '70s versions enough to say "unique", but check this one out for beeeautiful vocals over light-as-light sweet acoustic playing.

The boys start the show with all guns blazing. Seems like they'd open with this when they were most massive. Ahhhh, Winterland.

The band has come together, the vocals are warm, the solos are sharp, so strap on boys and girls 'cause this show just ignites from here on out....

Great Caution, but absofreakinglutely outrageous feedback into the deep deep space and back. Face stolen, body floating -> Bid You Goodnight. Damn.

Savage cut in it tho. Mike Lai's soundboard has the last minute, but the AUD just fades out (tape change?)

I come back to this one again and again and just go nuts for it every time.

The immortal Pig Rap. "I gotta bouta dolla and a quarter... You can't buy much for a dolla and a quarter...." And so much more. I agree with Phil (!): This is some of the best Pig out there.

Very hot, very tight, and freakishly good. Perfect transition into a nice Stella, too.

To fully grok this one, you have got to listen to the Dark Star before it. Phil is totally explosive here, and it comes out of one his most massive solos of the year right before it. Jerry then takes his lead and tears it up in the most completely beautiful way.
