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.

Copps Coliseum

I threw this 2nd set in to re-listen to the much debated S>F, which I still think is top 20 at best. But I kept listening cause of the believe it or not was coming up, but much to my surprise...the Truckin' was great with a super strong outro jam into drums.

Killer Bobby version with Matthew Kelly on harmonica.

Jer's voice is a little rough, but I think it adds to this eerie version. The outro jam is just ok tho.
