Help On The Way > Slipknot > Franklin's Tower
Oct. 11, 1977
Lloyd Noble Center - University of Oklahoma

This is yet another example of Deadheads voting for a version simply because it's not only in 77 but it's the last one until 83, because this is NOT a good H>S>F...not at all. It's sloppy and all over the place, I mean it's a very difficult song to play, the Help>Slip at least and occasionally in 76-77 they 'slipped' no pun intended. Hell this slop fest might be why Jerry shelved it for 6 years...When you compare this with stellar 77 versions like 2/26, 4/23, 5/09, 5/22!!!!!!, 6/09!!!!!!! it doesn't even belong remotely this high, my God the fucking masterpiece that is 6/03/76 Paramount theater is beneath this???!!! No way...

Uptown Theatre

What the hell are the cockmasters below me talking about? This is another in the line of smoking hot late 79 Scarlet>Fires! The transition into fire is just amazing....I'll admit that other close versions like 11/30/79 Stanley Theater, 11/01/79 Nassau are a bit better IMO bit this is right there with em...
