Take Me To The River

Pyramid Arena

Epic bust out in Memphis, the home of Al Green. Sorry, Talking Heads did not write the song. Firm believer this was the best run in 1995.

Fillmore East (Late Show)

Another great acoustic version from 1970. Alot of heady stuff from these shows.

Its kind of a chill slowed version. Doesn't make it any less heady, though. Just different.

Absolute definitive version....Phil is huge on the digital download. Killer opener....epic transition into Iko and cool reprise later. Way more inspired due to its opener status. Bruce kills it to.
Stuck Inside of Mobile with the Memphis Blues Again

Madison Square Garden

Great call...this show is killer. Maybe the best of the run.

Winterland Arena

You could call this best ever and it sits at three votes. This show amazes me more and more with each listen. I don't listen to the first set as much as the second, but this set cooks from probably the best Straw from 77 to this PL. Don't get me started on the second set. I honestly don't know if there is a better show from 77 than this.
