Blazin' hot smokeshow of syncopated bends, slides, and hammer ons that turns the intensity up to 11

Clarence Clemons sits in for the whole show and really is a great addition. They rock this Let It Rock better than anywhere else I have heard anywhere

Very strong throughout. Excellent Weir vocals. Garcia delivers.

Indianapolis Sports and Music Center

Way underrated. Smokes many a 70's version. Dig that outro descending turnaround jam thing toward the end.

tight and rockin' - underrated

Barton Hall - Cornell University

Is there anything about 5-8-77, including this, that isn't over-rated? 12-9-25: I came across this a few years later and - while I would still argue the song is overrated - I like it a lot better now than I used to. It's an excellent version -- but perhaps there are a few more extant that are just a little bit more excellent?
Cumberland Blues

Berkeley Community Theatre

tore it to shreds like a locomotive chooglin on through the Smokies, black smoke trailin', underrated
U.S. Blues (Wave That Flag)
June 30, 1985
Merriweather Post Pavilion

fast and strong with lots of wailing Brent on the B3 to close a legendary show
