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.

I hate this song, but this a great one!

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.

Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain
July 3, 1978
St. Paul Civic Center Arena

This starts off one of the most enjoyable 2nd sets that I listen too. None of it is best ever, but every tune is so solid and song selection is perfect... repeat Disc 2 in my car all the time.

Best version if not for 12/19/77.
Dark Star
Sept. 10, 1972
Hollywood Palladium

There really are some sweet melodic DS theme moments in this one. How something like this sits with so few votes, baffles me.

War Memorial

See 12/29/77 for the best.
Friend of the Devil

Fox Theatre

Honest... one of the sweetest versions ever played.
