Perfect 30 Trips version from a great show

Promised Land
Sept. 24, 1972
Palace Theatre

Good 30 Trips version, particularly good due to the banter at the end of the song 'What would you do if we started shouting requests at you?!'

Big River
Sept. 24, 1972
Palace Theatre

Particularly good contributions from Bill and Keith on this one, and Bobby and Jerry duelling solos at one point! Really swinging version

One More Saturday Night

As good as any, changing the tone after a beautiful Brokedown, on fire to end a great show

Uncle John's Band
May 9, 1977
War Memorial

Agreed, strangely overlooked for such a highly regarded show. The verses are nothing out of the ordinary, Donna's singing is great though, but as said above there's serious intensity to the last few minutes. Definitely should be higher
Help On The Way > Slipknot > Franklin's Tower
Sept. 22, 1993
Madison Square Garden

As said above, Slipknot is a dream. Great tone, just fantastic
Not Fade Away
Dec. 7, 1971
Felt Forum, Madison Square Garden

Start to finish brilliant. They seem to never want it to end and when they do Bobby sounds exhausted! Great stuff.
Jack Straw
July 1, 1978
Arrowhead Stadium

So so so good!
Playin' In The Band
July 19, 1974
Selland Arena

One of my favourite stand alone PITBs, the last 5-6 minutes of jamming are gorgeous, but this has got it all from beginning to end. They really push on from this into the next set as mentioned already. Supreme.
