Its All Over Now

Billerica Forum

If I ever get to joyfully skip to my destination I'd hear this theme en route. Relentless yet not mean/crunchy like previous year's IAON greats.

Springfield Civic Center

8+ minutes of twitching and dodging. This show is easily strongest most complete of Godchaux Winter '79

They Love Each Other

Winterland Arena

If you're a late 70s fan than this is as good as TLEO gets. Top 3 for sure.
Franklin's Tower

Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum

The Jack>Tower opening is chaos
Samson and Delilah
April 8, 1978
Veterans Memorial Coliseum

Maybe Betty's cleanest soundind board too
Deal

Nashville Municipal Auditorium

It's between this and the hidden gem 11/16 for Deal of '78
Deal
Nov. 16, 1978
Uptown Theater

That's an understatement, Kieth performs maybe his best Deal, Jerry wails away on chords and SBD is clean, Too bad this show is incomplete would love to hear the Stagger from it.
