Opens set one, strident and tightrope treading!! After-hours vibe of demolished dystopia, PIcasso moon always gives way to tight soloing and melts

surprised this was omitted-delivery is good, jam is very broad and palatial, seascapes of frozen transpacific bridges. Rings and spires of dankness

Stella Blue
March 20, 1977
Winterland Arena

magical stella with some absolutely fantastic dual lead work from jg and bw at the end. No one does a ballad like these guys
The Other One
March 20, 1977
Winterland Arena

So underrated. I just love 77, through and through and through. Stephen-esque spaciness looms throughout this mammoth version of the other one, especially in the lysergic second half.
St. Stephen
March 20, 1977
Winterland Arena

What a treat this St. Stephen, cruisin' down a sunny highway at calm speed, smelling the roses all the while. '77 goodness.
