Never thought I'd dig this song so much. They're just so on this whole night (week actually).

I love this version. It's got oomph and doesn't put you to sleep. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YyAOwP8dLqc for video.

Embryonic "Fire" in the "soundcheck jam" into Wharf Rat. Not a full FTM, but of amazing Deadfulness and not listed elsewhere. Check it out!

Ship of Fools

Roosevelt Stadium

Jerry belts it out with power, puts real oomph into it.
The Other One

Good and weird. Starts spacious and open, then goes bananas. Not in the hard acid shot-out-of-a-cannon sense but in a more experimental peak weirdness way. Seems like they either forgot about the first verse altogether or figured they'd already ridden it as far as it'd ride.
Samson and Delilah

The whole show is extra loose, and this is no exception... but it flows like a room full of bouncing pingpong balls and grooves with great butt.
Dancin' in the Streets

Roosevelt Stadium

Part of a great run of '76 versions, full of experimental jams, wild turn-on-a-dime grooves, and funky funky funk.
The Wheel

Roosevelt Stadium

Glorious. It moves with the spinning grace of the big wheel and the small wheel too. The Devils give it a pulse while the guitar landscape rolls past and you're dozing in and out of a dream, comfortable in the back of the bus, the road unfolding before you... on the road... sunshine through the window... just a little more ground.
