The Music Never Stopped
End to the first set. Gets really fast and insane for the ending peak
128
Comes A Time
With feeling
162
Help On The Way > Slipknot > Franklin's Tower
After cornell, duh.
3
Friend of the Devil
nice '77 usually cut on the tapes
25
Sunrise
Good solo, good vocals
41
Franklin's Tower
Nice version, good quality recording... Hard to find Franklin's Tower
62
Ship of Fools
Perfection. The "comes a time" for this show gets all the attention but this SOF is just as grand
85
Pretty Peggy O
Surprised this one isn't listed here already - it's achingly beautiful.
39
Sugar Magnolia
Out of a fantastic second set. Caps it off beautifully and with force
49
Brown Eyed Women
better than Cornell? I think so at least;)
71
Bertha
One of the best versions I have ever heard. Give it a listen! Crazy Good.
59
Cassidy
powerful
75
Big River
They just could do no wrong at this show, Hidden among all the other gems is this monster River. Big solo work by Jerry; nice fills by Keith.
21
Tennessee Jed
what can you say it's from May '77
28
Not Fade Away
15
Good Lovin'
short but incredibly sweet.
25
The Other One
A fairly short version, but don't let the time fool you, this version is as intense as they come. Its to wonder how they could make this up on the fly
28
Estimated Prophet
Definitely belongs on the list
11
Mexicali Blues
Jerry's instrumental jam is short but sweet.
33
Uncle John's Band
cruelly overlooked encore to a classic show...hot jam section, reminiscent of '68...deserves to be heard
1
Drums
Part of a great jam suite at an all-time great show...
1
Help on the Way
solid version that I didn't see on here, thought everyone would enjoy
