Perfect 30 Trips version from a great show

Sept. 24, 1972
Palace Theatre

Good 30 Trips version, particularly good due to the banter at the end of the song 'What would you do if we started shouting requests at you?!'

Big River

Palace Theatre

Particularly good contributions from Bill and Keith on this one, and Bobby and Jerry duelling solos at one point! Really swinging version

Newcastle City Hall

As good as any, changing the tone after a beautiful Brokedown, on fire to end a great show

Cumberland Blues

Stanley Theatre

Nothing to say that hasn’t been said already, this absolutely SMOKES!
The Music Never Stopped
Dec. 28, 1979
Oakland Auditorium

Just have to comment again about how this should be top 5 comfortably, even top 3 - only versions rivalling this are 4/24/78 and 2/3/78. Raw energy, keeps me coming back for more

Truckin'
May 17, 1974
P.N.E. Coliseum

Yes this is one of the worst vocal mishaps I've ever heard (and that's saying something with this song!) but goes places afterwards and only adds to the uniqueness for me. End jam is great
Deal

Edmundson Pavilion

This deal went down. One of the best early Deals I've heard
