Charlotte Coliseum

Many effects used in this one, but I get mesmorized by Phil thumping away

Nice flowing, dream-like solo from Jerry in this one. Very nice

Typical mellow summer '73 style, this one is sweeter than soda pop

As with all others of this time period, this doesn't have the '89-'90, Jerry shred your face completely off and you are left shattered and in awe-type jamming at the end, but this one has great energy and a tight punch of a peak to close.

This one really cooks along with some serious energy. High quality Straw

As noted, the ramp up to run and see is hair raising. Def needs more daps!

Obviously this is off the charts, stratospherically awesome in every way possible. I'd have to do a blind taste test with Hartford and Alaska (why is that so low?) to see which i prefer most, but luckily i can just enjoy all three. From memory, i'd have to say Alaska, which takes nothing away from the other two

Flat out mesmerizing, deep thick funk SWAGGER. My favorite. Agree with previous comparisons to Cornell (re: flubs, depth, etc) - this is the go-to for me
