More good blues from this great early show. Check out Pig's harp solo too.

Builds nicely and the ending jam has a certain swagger to it.

You can hear the entire band stop playing as individuals and start playing as a whole during the middle of this. Powerful stuff.

Gets a vote for the AUD. I prefer Moore's recording on 04-30 (more well balanced with low frequencies, without the boomy-ness of 05-01). Feel quite fortunate to have these tapes around! Also Keith shines this entire Palladium run.

Wow! Full of energy, and Keith shovels coal into the fire of the final section. Band sounds like a roaring dragon on the AUD.

A monster “NFA.” This is a bit slower than the latter May versions, but no less hot. Jam changes at around 8:40 in. Long and multifaceted playing. Deserves more votes.

I don't hear this as the best of the year (honestly by a long shot), but the following "NFA" is some hot shit.
