Very smoking version that's a fair representation of the entire show. Great energy all night!

It's just played really well. The entire show is good but nothing better than an A-. Show was heavy in my rotation in youth. A+ SBD. Nice CRS opener!

Played in hyper speed and everything still sounds just exactly perfect. A great way to end a set in any era

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

The Jack>Tower opening is chaos

Deal

Nashville Municipal Auditorium

It's between this and the hidden gem 11/16 for Deal of '78
Deal

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.
