Great second set version after a 45 minute jam and emotive China Doll.

Major screw-up of the lyrics here, Pig tries to make up for it and then Jerry just steals the show. I can dig.

Great transition out of Mama Tried! Real cool little western pair in the middle of a fantastic first set

Such a killer transition out of Franklin's. So so smooth and an awesome version too!

Phil is a beast here especially. Can't imagine seeing this live with the Wall...
Truckin'

Iowa State Fairgrounds

Top notch Truckin' itself here, and the jam after reminds me of 5/19 where they're just so full of energy at the end of the show and just go on and on and on...obviously a much more clear theme here but wonderful nonetheless! Helluva show

St. Stephen>NFA>Stella Blue is one of the best moments on the June 76 box set. Absolutely incredible playing all the way through, do yourself a favor and check this out
