Lots of submissions from this show. 2 well-played sets - this is my favorite Stagger Lee, not sure exactly why it just has IT.

The freakin harmonies on this one I miss that trio singing Euro 72 style. Back when Phil could sing that high

This one gets up here for Brent's creativity during the Jam. UJB sandwich 2nd set is sweet.

Amazing final jam. 87 wow.
Dancin' in the Streets

Harpur College

Probably needs to be separated here - Pig or No Pig versions . This being a brilliant Pig version of the song. He shines throughout this show, and gets excellent supporting vocals by the band with all around great playing.
Terrapin Station

Knickerbocker Arena

Some tight Brent playing in this Terrapin. Amongst my favorite of his work. Terrapon>MLB - yes please!

Swing Auditorium

First - best. Clean concise and extremely well-played. You can tell from the first notes that this version was going to be special.
Big River

Iowa State Fairgrounds

They take their time with the transition development. Both the Eyes and Big River are monsters.
