Kezar Stadium

The vocals for Donna are low on the recording but the rest of the band are so tight this version really kicks ass!

How can you hate any version where Brent is just totally invested?

Winterland Arena

You only get about the half the song in the recording but the band is awesome sounding and the audience is going insane!

Really heavy on Brent's synth at the beginning on the recording, which isn't a bad thing. Great vocal play with Jerry, Bob, & Brent.

Nice light and bouncy version. Jerry is spot on with his lyrics. The boys sound like they're having fun.

Me and My Uncle

Horton Field House - Illinois State University

I don't know. It's a little too Disco-Dead for what is, ostensibly, a country song and Bobby flubs a few of the lyrics. I'll take 8-21-1972. Just my opinion.

Definitely my favorite. "Grabbed a bottle, racked him in the jaw" line is awesome.

Is it Mickey on a xylophone or a secondary synth for Brent that hits those diamond-like drops of musical goodness throughout "Lady With a Fan"? Really good version. Maybe not best ever, but really freaking good!

Memorial Coliseum

The outro jam with Jerry forcing the band to keep up to his pace is awesome. Just picked this show up with the May '77 box. Excited to see what else I'm in for.

An amazing version that ends an amazing show. Get the whole show on tape if you can. It is absolutely amazing.
