It's the jam before Stagger Lee gets shot in the balls that defines this one. Check out this aud. Great Ace slide all show!

Stagger Lee
May 12, 1979
Alumni Stadium, University of Massachusetts

I did cause of that sick Jerry riff at the end. If you listen to most Staggers from '78 lots of them are quite equal to 12/16. 5/12/79 is the best due to the blissful ~2 minute jam that wraps it up. I don't know the exact length but it's without question the longest Stagger outro. So psychedelic.

Double post, just listen and drool.

This is the band's best performance of this song and it's not even close. Screw 12/16/78.
Estimated Prophet

Field House - Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute

This should have at least a dozen votes. Easily top Estimated of the year. Madness. Listen to this show and vote up 85% of songs played. It's only fair.
Not Fade Away

The Sportatorium

Oozes with Spring '78 energy. Ace keeps the slide in his pocket for the most time and plays some funky riffs that make the body move as Jerry plays for an audience in Mars.
