"It's a little tune in honor of this building" - rockin' Samson set opener

Samson and Delilah
March 10, 1985
Berkeley Community Theatre

Sweet show opener where the *whole* band is on - even as an AUD only you can clearly hear the entire band

Spanish Jam
April 17, 1982
Hartford Civic Center

A rare Spanish Jam without Jerry, but Bobby, Brent, and Phil make it sweet nonetheless

Dear Mr. Fantasy
March 24, 1987
Hampton Coliseum

Superb transition from space into this classic Traffic cover - nailed just right on all levels

The Other One
May 17, 1981
Onondaga Auditorium

Short but blazing - a personal favorite. Brent's Hammond truly makes this shine. He's Gone>O1 is just such an awesome combo

Eyes Of The World
Feb. 21, 1991
Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum Stadium

As the previous comment said, just a really fun show. Whole show is to die for and I can't imagine how fun it was to see a post space Eyes
Eyes Of The World
Oct. 28, 1990
Zenith

Victim>Eyes is an underappreciated combo, executed well this night
The Music Never Stopped
Jan. 10, 1979
Nassau Coliseum

This is the first version when I truly understood why it's called The Music Never Stopped
Eyes Of The World
Sept. 21, 1991
Boston Garden

Nice Hornsby jam at the end
Playin' In The Band
March 31, 1991
Greensboro Coliseum

On the heels of a tremendous Eyes - I bet if this was included with the rest of the bonus on Dick's Picks 17 it would be *much* higher on this list
