Hardly a classic, but surprisingly not listed despite being on 30 Days 2013

This isn't on here? From this show? Pretty memorable version.

Brokedown Palace
Oct. 6, 1981
Rainbow Theater

Caps off one of the most ballad-heavy shows in the band's history.

A nice contrast to all the ballads from this show.

Especially nice and up-tempo following a delicate portion of the show.

Shakedown Street
April 6, 1982
The Spectrum

Ridiculous jam on this. Top 3 status justified here.
El Paso
Oct. 14, 1977
Hofheinz Pavilion

This kills. No idea why this is so low.
Help On The Way > Slipknot > Franklin's Tower
April 1, 1984
Marin County Veterans Auditorium

Help's a bit mangled, which is not unusual, but footing is found in the Slipknot leading into a confident Franklin's. Enjoying Brent a lot here, this was a good era for him.
Estimated Prophet
Feb. 3, 1978
Dane County Coliseum

As was mentioned earlier, kicks off an insanely good sequence of music.
Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain
March 10, 1981
Madison Square Garden

Nothing really jumped out at me until Fire, where Jerry just shreds with intensity. Unusual ending to this one too.
