Good vibe, but pretty short version. Its good not great as stated above.
Cryptical Envelopment
June 16, 1985
Greek Theater

What a trip, but this is one song that the difference between a 70's version and 80's version is such a huge gap. Still must have been awesome to see, though. Here it has the 6th best ranking of all time...lol.

Harpur College

Still think 2/13>5/2, but this is a beast!
Jack Straw
Nov. 6, 1979
The Spectrum

Spot on! Great lengthy mid jam that is super hot and then nail the Jack Straw from Wichita.....This version could easily be top 5 for these reasons.
