New Minglewood Blues

Oakland Auditorium

Real meaty version by everyone. I like these 1979 ones more than the 1977 versions. Just as tight, but meatier.

Really hot music here from an epic show of 1979. I am really surprised this isn't on here yet.

My favorite version to start of a perfect post-drums to an epic show.

Some of the best deals come from the 90'S. Almost 10 mins and Jer at his best.

Soldier Field

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

The Spectrum

This thing is no joke!
Terrapin Station

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.

Chrisler Arena

This is absolutely torched by everyone.
Playin' In The Band

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.
