The Scope

Jazzy, speedy and energetic...but don't let the grimey SQ deter you...this is worth it!

Manor Downs

Mournful and Triumphant all at once. A mind-crushing outro by JG...best of the '70s IMO.

Pauley Pavilion - University of California

Indeed a wonderful version, one of my favorites of the year in fact.

P.N.E. Coliseum

Very fine version, but try 9/18/74 for a best-of-the-year contender.

Stanley Theater

Sort of a sloppy version, but they more than make up for it with an insanely ferocious jam with multiple Jerry peaks. Overall, this is one of the best I've heard.

Cole Field House

Awesome extended version...pure rock 'n roll.
