Goin' Down The Road Feelin' Bad

Smokin' version aside from the cool sequence of GDTRFB>NFA>Bo Diddley>NFA. Def worth a listen.

I really think this a cool version. Jazzed out in the middle. Tight w/o too much wasted rap.

Smokin' promised land. Super tight. Very under-rated show.

I have been waiting for this release for years. It was my second show I played from the 30 trips, just behind Cape Cod 79. The wait is finally over for these 2 important shows in GD history.

One of my favs. Musically, it is extremely well played, but also has one of the best vocal reprises that I know of.

This one really soars. Should be higher. It has some hot peaks. Not sure why this show doesn't get more love outside the Dew.

Just one of the many great treats this evening. Easily one of the best ever.
