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.

Cryptical Envelopment

Civic Auditorium

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.

Stella Blue

Soldiers' and Sailors' Memorial Hall

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.

China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider

Old Renaissance Faire Grounds

Ok. I will agree this is epic. The china cat is sick.

Pretty standard for 1972. Not sure the hype.

Short but sweet
Morning Dew
Sept. 10, 1974
Alexandra Palace

I prefer the May/June 1977 versions, but this has one of the best first solos and then later crescendos that were more than usual for 1974. This easily should be ranked higher. I can't believe how good this version is.
