This one should really be on here. This is possibly the best show of 1979. And this NFA is pretty tasty. Please get your DP 5 out and listen.

The notes are so sweet even on the audience recording. Man was Jer excited about playing Wolf for the first time in 2 years.

This starts off one of the most amazing shows ever by this band. You could put almost each version in the top 3 regardless of the present vote count. Wolf's tone makes this show unique to any 77 show. I highly recommend listening to this whole show and you will hear.
