Weather Report Suite
Dec. 12, 1973
Omni Coliseum

Cold Rain and Snow
Dec. 26, 1979
Oakland Auditorium

Great version but my three go to sugar cubes are 12/27/77, 10/12/83 and 8/30/80 Luckily CRS is one of few songs I can tolerate from all eras and never get bored of it.

Oct. 31, 1979
Nassau Coliseum
