Wolf's tone is even killer on Mama. I have no problem saying this is best ever.

It's a nice one, but the Cap version is the definitive. Listen for yourself.

Hot version with an Easy Answers in it. The jam out of Easy Answers flat out smokes.

Could do no wrong at this show...even the Miracle smokes. This one blows away 90% of all the versions out there.

Darkstar67: Your overall list is if I was on a deserted island and I had 5 shows to bring....can't go wrong with what you would pack. Yeah...I just listened to that whole second set of 3/26/72...not that the first set isn't worthy, but damn from Truckin thru NFA is a great listen...enjoy.
