Fun, tight version with great energy and tight vocals. Fun stuff.

Begins sounding like the epic hard charging beast it becomes over the next months.

Not Fade Away

Cleveland Music Hall

The NFA>GDTRFB>NFA sequence in its infancy: 3rd time played, and remarkably smooth and perfect transitions with exuberant jamming.

The Other One

Super-charged hard rocker here. Hits all the 1970 highlights, with power and precision: a white knuckler. Tape is rough AUD, w/ C. Miller cleanup.

One of Pig's best: Perfect vox, great harp solo. Jerry too. Some tape issues, but thanx Mr. Miller... thanks a lot.

Help On The Way > Slipknot > Franklin's Tower
June 14, 1976
Beacon Theatre

Only the Dead can melt down and build up at the same time like this wonderful Slipknot. The knot is knotted, the loop well looped and out of the tangle we go into the beauty of Franklin's Tower. The '76 groove mellows it waaaaaaaay out, but they're really tight even at the slow tempo. Honestly, too, never did Donna, Bobby and Jerry harmonise so sweetly as on this Help.
Mind Left Body Jam

No such thing as a bad MLB jam. The Playin' before it got so weird that even the tough bikers were probably freaked out, let alone the dosed hippies. The MLB just brought it back and shows us good sunlight and lots of tender love. I'm there in mind today, though I couldn't be there in body then.

Totally blazing. Jerry took his vitamins.
Eyes Of The World

Agreed that this is unique. Compare the 2 sets to this amazing show: 1st set is jumping and hot, while the whole 2nd set is cool, smooth and mellow , including the beautiful DS and this great Eyes.
Playin' In The Band

Funny version. Seems to space out for a while then really heats up right at the massive ending.
