Unless I'm very much mistaken, this is the premiere of Tiger.

There are some nice moments in the show before this, but it really takes off around here.

The bass cut at the start of this is a tragedy. Still a great version.

I know this is JGB, but it's one of the best versions and absolutely needs to be listed.

The first time I heard this it scared the hell out of me. Intense playing!
Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain

Patrick Gymnasium, U of Vermont

Circled back around to this one apparently! Very good version with a great transition. Nice matrix of this cures what ails ya.
Mississippi Halfstep Uptown Toodeloo
May 17, 1978
Uptown Theater

Still surprised to see that this has gotten no love! First ever 1/2 Step > Franklins and it's a fire version! Great matrix of this, give it an ear.
Dark Star

Paramount Theater

Another great version from 72!
Alligator

This version needs some serious love. Face melting Primal Dead right here!
