I don't know what it is about this version...it has vocal miscues, but is just epic at an epic run.

A similar version to most from May 77 with some exceptions. Not sure why the next night at same venue is ranked so much higher.

If all the others are on here from May, this one shuldn't be forgotten. However, most are tough to differentiate from May 77.

I have been waiting for this release for years. It was my second show I played from the 30 trips, just behind Cape Cod 79. The wait is finally over for these 2 important shows in GD history.

One of my favs. Musically, it is extremely well played, but also has one of the best vocal reprises that I know of.

This one really soars. Should be higher. It has some hot peaks. Not sure why this show doesn't get more love outside the Dew.

Just one of the many great treats this evening. Easily one of the best ever.
