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.

Ok. I will agree this is epic. The china cat is sick.

Pretty standard for 1972. Not sure the hype.

I prefer the May/June 1977 versions, but this has one of the best first solos and then later crescendos that were more than usual for 1974. This easily should be ranked higher. I can't believe how good this version is.
