This one should really be on here. This is possibly the best show of 1979. And this NFA is pretty tasty. Please get your DP 5 out and listen.

The best O1 besides Paris from E72 creates an epic El Paso sandwich. Please up-vote the O1 too!

Agreed. An amazing show even for how shitty this recording is. Can u imagine if it was high quality. Its a testament to how good this show is! Definitely one of the best Sugar Mags ever played. Its ridiculous!

There is rumor that the band responded in unison when asked why go to USC in Columbia...."Fuck Clemson." LMAO.

I love when you were at a smoking show and they encored with Brokedown and you were like thank god, I can't handle anymore epicness as you sway back and forth singing with everyone around you. I am pretty sure this happened on this night as it is one heartfelt Brokedown that was played. What a show!!!!!!

I am adding this comment for the whole run. Your best purchase would be to buy the 1977 Winterland Box set. It is a microcosm of this whole great year. It has top 5 versions of all the great ones played this year.
