I don't know what it is about this version...it has vocal miscues, but is just epic at an epic run.

A similar version to most from May 77 with some exceptions. Not sure why the next night at same venue is ranked so much higher.

If all the others are on here from May, this one shuldn't be forgotten. However, most are tough to differentiate from May 77.

Samson and then right into Bertha that continues the Samson energy. Pure version. Makes no sense that this version has 2 votes.

Gave it another listen with all the activity for this version. It remains just good to me and will never be a go to for me, but that's ok. That's the beauty of this site.

All these rare electric versions are so tasty from the 80's. Great call, Donnie.

I'm an 82 LL Rain guy, but this is one of the finest from this year.
