Pig layin his rap on the midwest college crowd ha - pure '71 style here -the end duet of howls with Bobby is awesome.

Hot and sweaty sounding mix with a bit of a slow burn from Jerry - not crazy with the macho but cool.

A primo goto for seat of the pants jamming and "almost" over the cliff peaking - If you like TOG's - this one RIPS and is as good as it gets. Hartford is more strummy in general and this is way more jammy/picking imho. Both are great but there's something in the tempo here and Brent is right there with Jer on this night.
Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain

Worcester Centrum

I'm partial to 83's Scar>Fires with Philly 4/20 being my favorite of that year - I'll second that this one is for the ages - just freaking GREAT. Should be me much higher! +1
