All Along the Watchtower

Soldier Field

Dead base in the day, had this as a top 5 show of 1992...I think.
Playin' In The Band

The Spectrum

This thing is no joke!
Terrapin Station
Nov. 6, 1979
The Spectrum

I think its not as a hard hitting Terrapin, since its over 15 minutes and does have a jammed out feeling of being in the clouds. Nonetheless, unique and beautiful version.

Chrisler Arena

This is absolutely torched by everyone.
Playin' In The Band
Nov. 17, 1973
Pauley Pavilion - University of California

They did this sequence, I think 4 times. This is by far the best with all of the spot-on transitions. I don't think the Playin' ever gets tiger, but it is musically perfect to the ears. I completely agree with its top 5 ranking.
