Really fascinating space/jam after drums, lots of other one hints that ends in an abrupt NFA transition

Phil-tastic - some vocal miscues but excellent regardless

Bobby decimated the vocals on this one, hot hot hot
Mississippi Halfstep Uptown Toodeloo

Madison Square Garden

The band crushes this one, Jerry kills vocally. A wonderful farewell tribute to Brent. To Lay Me Down>Promised Land is not to be missed either
St. Stephen
June 26, 1976
Auditorium Theatre

The outro jam into the wheel might be one of the best of the '76 Stephen's. Nice minute long Stephen tease in Playin' right beforehand too
Help On The Way > Slipknot > Franklin's Tower
June 3, 1976
Paramount Theatre

Magnificent H>S>F. It flows in the groovy '76 way, hits just right. The band is locked in, cannot get any better than this, alongside the fantastic board quality
Estimated Prophet

Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum Arena

Great Estimated, nice Jerry jam last three or so minutes
