I mean yeah it's squeezed between Terrapin and Werewolves in this legendary triple encore, but full of '78 energy

Really unbelievable that they wouldn't play this again until 10/9/72 after this near-perfect first version

Its really really good Nog
Lazy Lightnin' -> Supplication
Nov. 2, 1979
Nassau Coliseum

After listening to this one I assumed it would be near the top but I am shocked...Bobby sounds great at the end of LL and Jerry just knocks Supplication out of the park. Awesome combo
Scarlet Begonias

Greek Theatre, U. Of California

This Scarlet B is hot stuff in it's own right. And transition into Fir.....eh Touch is fantastic!!!!! Obviously worth checking out for the whole sequence though
