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.

This is a great version...just three points about 3/27/94 that make it better. The delicate beginning is as good as any. Phil throws bombs throughout. It's has a longer ending with an epic and patient build up more along the lines of the 77 monsters. With that being said, great find here. Thanks.
