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

Nassau Coliseum

Sleuth....extremely well stated! It was a small piece of magic that happened that night...that was extremely rare in the post-Bruce era. I just think this version deserves its place in GD history and I am glad it al least ranked as the best Dew of the 90's...cause honestly I have not heard one from the 90's that crescendos like this one. FYI...the O1 is really amazing for this era too.

Didn't anyone get Dave's picks 10 with bonus disc??? This Thelma shit is good and there so few votes for both nights.

Epic Wheel out of the Raven space. Best show of Spring 82 and every tune needs more up-vote.
