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.

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.

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.

Not sure why this has so few votes. Its a great 10 minute version! Its not 1977, but its just the next tier below. Clearly it was an epic night and more was done for this 1/2 Step than usual.

Deadbase has the first Mind left the body jam occurring in 1973, but clearly the last 6 minutes of this DS is a beautiful up-tempo MLTBJ, which adds to this awesome DS.
Estimated Prophet

Winterland Arena

This ones the best of 1977. It comes in at 11.5 minutes which is longer than most from this era. It has such a cool chill jam at the end as it melts and then dissolves into St. Stephen...oh and BTW its after an epic 32 minute H/S/F. Sorry that I comment on this show way too much, but it deserves it.
