A lot of their early (pre-Donna) stuff can be pretty pitchy, but is super high energy. Also nice drums on this.

Madison Square Garden

Loved it, but wished Jerry could have taken more extended lines and played with Branford more.

Madison Square Garden

One of the most musically interesting things I've ever heard them do. It is wonderful to see what they can do with incredible musicians.

Old Renaissance Faire Grounds

No worries, djchall, I wasn't being sarcastic. It's Prankster Dead at its finest, and it's why that transition is all time.
China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider
Feb. 24, 1974
Winterland Arena

Obviously a contender for a top spot, but I give it my vote because of how Winterland sounds here, and how they sound in it.
