Overlooked show probably due to the middle AUD quality, but listen here and you get pure Jerry perfection, plus a possible explosion on stage.

Beautifully ensconced in a delicious 2nd set framed by a great Dancin'. On its own this one is pure and lovely. Great Fall '76 show.

Bobby throws a little bit more chaw into this one. It's full of spit and loads of fun. Great first set all around.

A blissful, soaring example of GD ensemble playing. Starts just a bit loose, but by the out chorus it's just amazing.

Lot's of love here for the intro... but damn did you guys make it to the outro? The intro starts like silky gossamer and ends like a seven-cylinder jackhammer. It has that nice virtuoso '77 clean feeling while keeping the grit-in-the-gears and hard rocking energy.

Maybe it suffers a bit in comparison to the outrageous excellence of both the first and second set jams? The transition from Franklin's is a bit wobbly - and it takes getting to the first solo for it to really pick up steam, with the Devils driving it back on track for the win.

Up-tempo, but not rushed. Keith is brilliant throughout, complimenting Jerry's endless wingspan.
Samson and Delilah

Winterland Arena

Soul-sizzling church here. The first half of PiTB noodles and swirls, but by the time Samson comes along they are all swagger and strength. This one is a colossus on its own, but part of an outrageous 1st set sammy it's become one of my top Samsons of all time.

Still brand-spankin' new, but they really found their stride here to kick off this outrageous extended jam to close out the first set. This strikes me as the first one to really convey the anthemic triumph outro.
