Incredible jazzy transition into Supplication

He's Gone
Dec. 27, 1977
Winterland Arena

I'm not a huge fan of this song after 74, but this version is just exactly perfect. Gave me chills!

Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain
Dec. 27, 1977
Winterland Arena

I'm surprised this one isn't listed yet. Although the Fire is only average, this Scarlet is one of the best unsung versions ever.

Swing Auditorium

If you dig 11-6-77, you'll love this. One of the highest-octane versions ever performed. Insanity.

Absolutely ON FIRE. Hottest version of the spring tour, easily.

Amazing soaring and melodic jamming!! Best of '76? It gets my vote!
St. Stephen

Field House - Seneca College

One of my favorites, very unique jam.
Wharf Rat
Oct. 30, 1977
Assembly Hall - Indiana University

Wonderful outro, with a *seamless* transition from the triumphant sounding jam of WR back to the space-jazz jamming of Playin' reprise.

Broome County Arena

Amazing, triumphant jamming. One of the most powerful versions ever played.
