A very inspired version amongst an O1 sangwich. BTW....the O1 is one of the best of E72.

They really drive this one home as they close this epic 2 show run.

Overlooked show due to epic previous night, but this wheel is just sweet. Btw...this show is no slouch either.

Good vibe, but pretty short version. Its good not great as stated above.
Cryptical Envelopment

Greek Theater

What a trip, but this is one song that the difference between a 70's version and 80's version is such a huge gap. Still must have been awesome to see, though. Here it has the 6th best ranking of all time...lol.

Still think 2/13>5/2, but this is a beast!
Jack Straw
Nov. 6, 1979
The Spectrum

Spot on! Great lengthy mid jam that is super hot and then nail the Jack Straw from Wichita.....This version could easily be top 5 for these reasons.
