Listen to the end of this sweet LL>Supp and tell me it shouldn't be in the top ten versions. And not a single mention here! Crazy!

Great show, not too well documented around these parts. Deal is hot and gutsy, from a very good first set.

Winterland Arena

This whole show is underrated -- it is a complete rocker from start to finish. The Sugaree here rivals 3-18, 5-19, and 4-29 for just exactly right, in my book. Splendid version, thanks for the tip KLAUS.

This one is very good, with Keith's experimentation on the polymoog adding something unexpected. Fires up to a nice crescendo as well. Worthy of a much higher place here, agreed.

Indeed. Unjust. Upped.

Brilliant pacing. Rivals any of the top dogs, for sure. Also, my new #1 for all-time, for now.

Ignore the naysayers. This is a masterpiece in a league of its own. Listen and melt.
