This shouldn't be too much of a shocker, it's Sping 78, a perfect year for Row Boy. aud recording(sounds fine)

I'm going to assume this version is new to the site because nobody has heard it

Have been a fan of this the moment I heard it. Aggressive!

If you like Jerry playing slide the only other version that comes to mind is 1/22/78. It's not as complete as Cornell, but there's like a 20 second stretch where Bobby and Jerry both start playing slide creating one hell of a trip.

Those two April '91 shows in Atlanta gave an audience a once and a lifetime to hear this band sound remotely like it again. The Stagger and Deal from this same show are both equally as noisy violence

Negligibly underrated, I guess AUDs don't have any ass kickers in their cataloge..
