Aching and poignant. Fairly standard for the mid 80s, and that’s a good thing….

Help on the Way
Oct. 9, 1976
Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum Stadium

A centerpiece for a fantastic second set! Almost a stand alone HELP since it takes a while for it to find its way to Franklins, so that's why the voting is here. And the SLIPKNOT is ridiculous. But really, the whole sequence of St.Steph-NFA-St.Steph-Help-Slip-Samson-Slip-Frank is phenomenal!!
The Other One
Nov. 17, 1971
Albuquerque Civic Auditorium

Wicked jams crash into wicked jams with an Uncle John’s jam tumbling ridiculously in and out of Me and My Uncle…. Amazing show!
Eyes Of The World
June 9, 1976
Boston Music Hall

Superb EYES!! There are moments where you almost forget what song it is… which is rare for EYES! Classic jamming! 1976 is one of my favorite years for this reason, despite being only half a year. One of their jazziest and jammiest stretches, a true bridge between 74 and 77, both very different eras! This show is a great example of how they were so willing to move songs around and try new ideas, inventing the jam band genre …. Entire show is spectacular!
The Other One
Nov. 4, 1977
Cotterell Gym - Colgate University

Scorcher!!! This show is so powerful! It not only features the one of my favorite EYES OF THE WORLD ever (which really should be ranked so much higher!) .... But this Other One just soars.... short, yes....but fantastic!
The Music Never Stopped

Riverfront Arena

The MLB definitely adds to a downright melodic MNS! Worth a vote!
