This one should really be on here. This is possibly the best show of 1979. And this NFA is pretty tasty. Please get your DP 5 out and listen.

Epic Dr. Beechwood intro...very short version with other May 77 ones being better.
The Other One

Olympia Theater

My second favorite O1 behind 2/13/1970. This one is pretty perfect and best one from Europe72. BTW best Dark Star of Europe 72 is Rotterdam.

Frickin epic show
Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain
May 17, 1977
Memorial Coliseum

Blows the standard Mosque(5/25) version out of the water. This version may be best of 1977 and top 5 all time. I can't get enough of this one...love the whacks in the beginning of Fire..never heard anything like that from Jer on Fire.

Grendel: Love your appreciation for this S/F. I think this show is so underrated. I mean the isolated Jerry solo after UJB is sic. I mean what makes up disc 3 of the May release (S/F>good lovin, UJB>Solo>Wharf Rat) is just awesome.
