The Truckin is good but the gem is the NFBM jam that follows.

How is this not on here? All you really have to say is 2/14/70, but with that being said...this one is epic.

How is this not on here. This thing is smokin. How did they have the energy for this encore after this epic show. Also, good cow bell in mix.

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!

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.
