Jack Straw

This is the GOAT followed by 10-20-84.

Old Renaissance Faire Grounds

Excellent version but clearly surpassed by the near perfect 5-3-72, followed by the rockin' 10-20-84.
Jack Straw
July 2, 1985
Civic Arena

Blossom Music Center

Massively underrated. Far better than many at the top.
Mexicali Blues

Carolina Coliseum - University of South Carolina

a perfect version of Mexicali with that characteristic mid-80s badassery going on
