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.

Pity about that string. Was chuggin' along pretty standard until around minute 07:00, then then turned the burners on and bit into it hard.

This will blister your brain. Hot doesn't even begin to describe it: This is supernova.

Thanks bro! Let me know what you think. Maybe "best 1st set" would be more likely. But the Truckin' and TOO from what we have of the 2nd set are both just amazing. Enjoy!

The cruelest cut I've ever found in any show.
