Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain
May 5, 1977
New Haven Coliseum

I think the Scarlet is top-notch. The bridge jam really delivers the goods. I'm not as big a fan of the Fire, which doesn't hit Cornell-like levels imo.
Help On The Way > Slipknot > Franklin's Tower
June 9, 1977
Winterland Arena

Upvote for the Slip alone, which is unreal. Definitely a contender for best ever for the combo.
Cold Rain and Snow

Springfield Civic Center Arena

Delivered with attitude. Upvote.
The Other One
May 10, 1978
Veterans' Memorial Coliseum

I love the entrance from Drums. Slow buildup until they break through. Underrated version.
Eyes Of The World

Veterans' Memorial Coliseum

Unique approach to this one. Phil and the Devils carry a driving rhythm section, but Jerry's a little more subdued. I like it as a change of pace.
