This one plays pretty true to form, but a strong, clean, and powerful rendition with nice guitar breakdowns from Jerry.

In a heady show from Alaska, this suite fits perfectly in a sneaky brilliant show

Bringing the Desert to Alaska, this one rocks heavy in the chilliest state!

Perfect closer to a very underrated show! Superb playing by the band, makes for a warm and perfect ending

Pretty rockin' one, fast and bluesy. Just over 4 minutes of smokeshow Dead.

This is pretty much perfect. That Europe '72 tour has some gorgeous music.

Stumbled on this one by accident, but I was very impressed by what I found.

This one gets nasty. One of the best versions you'll ever find of LL.

Cool as hell. Early rip of this one, so the lyrical aspect gets a little wonky, but Bill's beat on this is rocking. Also, a rare early set appearance for Row Jimmy, giving it a special flourish.

This one is fun as hell. Great vocal!
