SHOCKED this one wasn't mentioned yet. Even with the crushing cut out in the SBDs, this version still stands at the top

Very hot, tight jam segment. Song has the best lyric ever written: "Let your life proceed by it's own design"

By all accounts, this is a rather goofy song, but i love this version. Entire show is spot on

Go for it Dark Star '67! You will not be disappointed... The Franklin's is certainly no slouch either. Boys came to play at RRs. I just had another replay and this H>S>F is the truth

This Slipknot is insanely good. Ok, NOW i'll stop raving about this criminally underrated show...
Lazy Lightnin' -> Supplication

Red Rocks Amphitheatre

Brent and Bobby shouting "my lightning TOO!!," followed by a stunning, full band Supplication jam. This version is a screamer. Ok, i'll shut up about this incredible show...

Brent and Jerry take this one to an inspiring peak. Spin, post-haste!

This one is absolutely lovely. A nice emotive respite after a rocking Alabama and Greatest Story start. Bouncy leads from Jerry and tasteful fills from Brent. Easily an unheralded version
