One rara tune after the next. Even the Ship is tolerable!

Beat it on Down The Line

Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum Stadium

An amazing first set that was well played, cool song selection, and nice gems sprinkled in like this BIODTL!

Hell in a Bucket

Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum Stadium

I know there is no Branford and no DS, but this is hot start to the last great years of shows. Totally underrated!

All Along the Watchtower

Soldier Field

Dead base in the day, had this as a top 5 show of 1992...I think.
Playin' In The Band
Nov. 6, 1979
The Spectrum

This thing is no joke!
Terrapin Station
Nov. 6, 1979
The Spectrum

I think its not as a hard hitting Terrapin, since its over 15 minutes and does have a jammed out feeling of being in the clouds. Nonetheless, unique and beautiful version.
Passenger

Chrisler Arena

This is absolutely torched by everyone.
Playin' In The Band
Nov. 17, 1973
Pauley Pavilion - University of California

They did this sequence, I think 4 times. This is by far the best with all of the spot-on transitions. I don't think the Playin' ever gets tiger, but it is musically perfect to the ears. I completely agree with its top 5 ranking.
