This magnificent monster could easily be near the top for '71. The show has electrical problems in 1st set, but not here. Listen to it.

Show has a metallic twangy sound, to great effect here: turns this sweet tune into a hot industrial number.

Goes into a "The Main Ten" jam at 3:05 typical of the first month or so with Keith. Plus Phil is going bananas back there.

Jerry's bites down like an acid crocodile. Hot electric wires and sharp as a tack phrasing....

Listen past a few sound and static issues and you have a real beaut of a cruiser here. A solid doo-wop pulse gives it a different flavor too.a

Sweet and lovely version and part of an dream 2nd set Saint Stephen>NFA>SS>Eyes>Drums>Wheel. Just off-the-hook beautiful.

Beautiful mellow '76 Stephen jam flows oh-so-nicely into and out of a smooth and fine NFA.

One really beautiful idea after another. Slightly rough sound quality, but one rare beauty from this short rotation. I had this on cassette back in the 80s and damn near wore it out.

Think this is a Bobby song? Listen to Jerry just tear through it with his torrential downpour of one musical idea after another, his notes like so many raindrops by the million.

Thanks for the shoutout Darkstar67. ‘76 remains the best-kept secret year for the 70s. I think it gains from its loose and understated qualities. It isn’t slick - maybe the one thing I’d say against the perfection of the next year - but warm and cozy.
