The Eleven
One of the best
51
Death Don't Have No Mercy
Jerry haunts with voice and guitar...you feel his pain
28
St. Stephen
Buzzing with electricity, goes in to a killer Eleven
43
The Other One
Huge riffs, really tight playing. The Crypical Reprise is a monster and there's a cool spacey segue into New Potato. Classic Show
51
Dark Star
A great early version
32
New Potato Caboose
Starts with gongs and cymbals in the cosmic dust of an outrageous TOO>Cryptical, then gears up and goes supernova for over 20 minutes.
19
Cryptical Envelopment
How is this not here??? Classic reprise.
4
Space
Feedback( but where else to put it?) Almost tuneful,very focused. A great show.
10
Feedback
High intensity, coming in hot after a hot Caboose jam.

Morning Dew
Mystery Dew! I don't think this was played during this show. Listen on the Glassberg/Miller on the archive.
