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.

I wish some one who was a better writer than me could write a paragraph about why this version is inadequate and help me understand why its so low. Honestly, this version is in top 5 that I listen to for all reasons listed in the above post. It's a version that has everything.

It was tough to appreciate it when they played it every other night.

Jerry has that tone in the final solo that is like fuck alpine 89....I'm going heavy metal.

Everything was played so well this night with killer song selection. This little ditty gets lost in this epic show.
