The bass cut at the start of this is a tragedy. Still a great version.

I know this is JGB, but it's one of the best versions and absolutely needs to be listed.

Dire Wolf

Lloyd Noble Center - University of Oklahoma

Total zig in the setlist.
Dancin' in the Streets
Oct. 11, 1977
Lloyd Noble Center - University of Oklahoma

It's not just the great long never-ending jam, it's also the exceptional vocal outro before the jam.
Let It Grow
Oct. 11, 1977
Lloyd Noble Center - University of Oklahoma

This is killer stuff. Dark edged.
Bird Song
Sept. 10, 1972
Hollywood Palladium

One of the three best versions of this song. Criminally underrated.
El Paso

The Austin Municipal Auditorium

A desert vision amidst the Star's space.
