Franklin's Tower

Soldiers' and Sailors' Memorial Hall

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.

Cryptical Envelopment

Civic Auditorium

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.

Civic Auditorium

Go to Dead.net and listen on taper's section now. This is O1 is sick the way 1970 O1's are.

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.

The same happens with Veneta, too. I don't go to that show for the Promised Land, Sugaree, MAMU, Deal, Bertha (12/29/77), Straw, Sugar Mag, Casey, or OMSN....but I'm pretty sure these versions are all top 5.
Mississippi Halfstep Uptown Toodeloo

Winterland Arena

This one is top 5...great pre Rio Grande jam and thick outro as all the good ones do.

Not 1977, but a great version.

Rheinhalle

The transition is absolutely sick!
