Pure mad mental, as we used to say in Scotland. WOW, they really just let rip. Good track to dance to if you need to work of some high energy

Winterland Arena

I think I prefer this one to the Omni show,very sweet. I just love China Doll as a song and I think it was never bettered than the 73-74 period.

Dark Star(a very good one-dark, scary)->China Doll. As Carrion Crow says elsewhere, China Doll smooths out the mind after weird Jams. Beautiful song.

Please,please please listen to this whole show. What a way to start arguably the GD best single year and in such a year this show is overlooked but make this your New Year's treat-you won't regret it.Merry Xmas and a hope we all have a Grate 2016. Here's to the next 50!
