Maybe not the most exploratory but it's clear the band is having fun - solid 80's version

Wheel>Samson transition unbelievably smooth and beautiful. Must be heard at least once by all Heads
Samson and Delilah
Oct. 14, 1976
Shrine Auditorium

Excellent early version - solid as can be. And yes, Phil bombs galore
The Other One
Jan. 18, 1979
Providence Civic Center

Blazing version out of Truckin'. Jerry gets real jammy in this one. The final uninterrupted He's Gone > Truckin' > Other One. End of an era for sure
Help On The Way > Slipknot > Franklin's Tower
March 25, 1983
Compton Terrace Amphitheatre

Short but sweet Slipknot
The Other One
May 1, 1981
Hampton Coliseum

The eternal twin of the 5/17/81 Other One. Short but fiery - truly heady. Brent kills
