Sloppy start but the rest is played well. Not as good as many 77 versions but it deserves a mention.

Hampton Coliseum

Good version nestled into a unique first set. Neat crowd reactions. BTW the title is "Tons of Steel" not "100000 Tons of Steel"

This is awesome, check out Bobby's rap - "freedom 1 and freedom 2".

The Mecca

Great sounding version, one of the better covers they did in the late 80s.
Dark Star
July 25, 1974
International Amphitheater

This is amazing, one of my favorites ever! Jazzy DS with no low points, even has a Let It Grow tease in addition to the Slipknot! jamming. This should be rated much higher.

Brent gives a nice Pigpen style rap in this one, pretty cool.
China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider
