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.

Not sure why this has so few votes. Its a great 10 minute version! Its not 1977, but its just the next tier below. Clearly it was an epic night and more was done for this 1/2 Step than usual.

Deadbase has the first Mind left the body jam occurring in 1973, but clearly the last 6 minutes of this DS is a beautiful up-tempo MLTBJ, which adds to this awesome DS.

This ones the best of 1977. It comes in at 11.5 minutes which is longer than most from this era. It has such a cool chill jam at the end as it melts and then dissolves into St. Stephen...oh and BTW its after an epic 32 minute H/S/F. Sorry that I comment on this show way too much, but it deserves it.
