William and Mary College Hall

Surprised this isn't listed yet. This version is by far the best with the horns, with Jerry and Martin really getting into it with some fiery leads!

Monster reprise, one of the longest and best ever.

Unusual and fiery version making up the meat of an otherworldly Playin' sandwich.

Without question, the best Crypt reprise ever performed. This one reaches the limits of space and time.

Cow Palace

First ever Scarlet Begonias. Very unusual sound with a very tentative, bluesy feel, but it's still a keeper and worth hearing for the novelty at least

Yah i definitely dig the potent little E72 versions of the song when I just need a quick fix. I've had this on HYH forever. Keith and Phil are money all the way.
