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 as good as it gets...Jerry gets mean with one of his last solos.

The notes are so sweet even on the audience recording. Man was Jer excited about playing Wolf for the first time in 2 years.

This starts off one of the most amazing shows ever by this band. You could put almost each version in the top 3 regardless of the present vote count. Wolf's tone makes this show unique to any 77 show. I highly recommend listening to this whole show and you will hear.
