This is the third and last installment of Dancin'>Franklin's. Cape Cod and Buffalo are both better, but this one is pretty cool too.

Drop everything and go to tapers section now and listen!. The 01 is an instant classic and this Cryptical has that classic 1970 build-up.

Slow long version with nice solo at end. I think this one is so good due to the NFA before it and the smoking GDTRFB after.

Morning Dew

Dean Smith Center - University of North Carolina

This is a great version...just three points about 3/27/94 that make it better. The delicate beginning is as good as any. Phil throws bombs throughout. It's has a longer ending with an epic and patient build up more along the lines of the 77 monsters. With that being said, great find here. Thanks.

You could argue this the best version ever.
Big Railroad Blues
Dec. 6, 1971
Felt Forum, Madison Square Garden

This is a really hot version.
