One of the better Box of Rain,well sung nicely played. Cos the vocals are so important to this song I would wish others to hear it and vote it up.

When given a chance and a suitable song Donna could sing just fine. Listen to her in the 1976 shows. Bobby and her don't try and rock it out by shrieking and the band really swings along. This whole show is superb.

Brilliant show-easily missed in a month of great shows. This is every bit as good as those dates around it and stands up to the famous 7/8/9/ May shows.

In there to be one of the best of Spring '77 tour. Top 3 IMO and Deal is one of my faves.

Agreed. This whole show is actually Very Good. Tight(as you'd expect from May '77) good vocals, some stellar soloing and great support work. The whole band is on, singing,playing-even remembering the words!!!! Try and give the whole show a whirl- 3 hours will be well spent.

I think that this show is in the top 3 for this tour. With the night before Possibly the best 2 nights(and that includes the much overrated Barton hall show on the 8th) of 1977. Also, was there ever another time when there was 4 Jerry tunes in a row?
