This one should really be on here. This is possibly the best show of 1979. And this NFA is pretty tasty. Please get your DP 5 out and listen.

Whole show deserves more hype with all the crazy bust-outs on borrowed instruments.

This one can really hang with 9/18...mostly cause the La Bamba is the most jammed out of the 4. With that being said after listening to all 4 of these GL>La Bamba>GL, which was fun as hell and I highly recommend doing. 9/18 remains the gold standard since the GL aspect of it is the best of the 4.

Not quite as intense as the bust-out on 9/7/1987. More chill feel to it. The Intro into La Bamba is better and the La Bamba is pretty tight. For me I like 9/7>9/13 just because of the insane energy on 9/7.

Just insane energy...can hang with MSG version on 9/18/87. The crowd just goes nuts with the La Bamba. The La Bamba is a little loose as expected. Transition into La Bamba is not as tight as MSG, but the outro is spot on.
