A rare and different tune. Real nice transition into epic Playin-UJB from Go to Nassau...

Stunned this ain't here yet. Next night is a famous one. But this 2nd set opener is strong and rugged. Nice moment at "born to be a bachelor..."

Truckin'

Madison Square Garden

Wow! Can't believe this hasn't made the cut yet. Rips and roars out of poignant China Doll. Almost become a Smokestack... Super strong show!

Carousel Ballroom

DeadBase calls it a Dark Star Jam. There is not much of a hint of a Dark Star-ish melody, and the date is debatable. But everyone needs to hear this!!

Dancin' in the Streets

Cape Cod Coliseum

Excellent Dancin' of the Brent era. Into fantastic Franklin's... as great as the Franklin's the next night... Ridiculous
China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider
Oct. 28, 1979
Cape Cod Coliseum

Could be the highlight of two highlight-jammed nights in Yarmouth. Bobby wishes he was a headlight on his own back door and a long and powerful China-Rider continues to explode with absurd energy.

Rolls into a great Bertha.
Sugaree

Franklin's Tower

Plant fire, you'll still harvest wind! Excellent out of Jack Straw!
