Friend of the Devil
May 7, 1978
Field House - Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute

Speedy propulsive and manic, yep this is a FOTD. Pushing the boundaries in the first set, cascading devils circus throughout, solo builds from jazzy, heavy but still gorgeous to pummelling hard rock fury. nuclear phil for "second one is prison babe"

Field House - Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute

Freaky chromatic exploration from everyone but especially phil and keith throughout the whole first set
Wharf Rat

Patrick Gymnasium - University of Vermont

Sunrise

Patrick Gymnasium - University of Vermont

classic tour and special version, Phil and keith are insane the whole year and some of these more fragile moments like this and the psych ward loner moments of playin'
Sugaree
Nov. 24, 1978
Capitol Theatre

still one of my favorites, Godchauxs look resplendent in houndstooth tweed blazer for him, silk kaftan thing for her. really tasty deeply meant patient textural work on first and third solos and plateaus of volcanic ecstasy on the second, all cleaned up by the Hazard man https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fStQUpqVLM8 about to dive into another 78 binge
