I can't believe the Samson from Dead Set isn't listed, it's such a unique version with a vibe I've never heard in any other Samson!

Save the Whales
Feb. 9, 1969
Monterey Bay Aquarium

This version of Save the Whales totally jumps out at you like Jack Nicholson in The Shining where he kills the chef with an axe. Seriously ripping yet totally chill and there are times where you can barely hear it at all but if you listen close you still don't hear it and talk about a change of pace from a Scarlet>Fire !!!!! my buddy said it was just setbreak but I know a Save the Whales when I hear it!!!
Samson and Delilah
June 19, 1976
Capitol Theatre

What this Crow above me said is true! I love the balls to the wall SAmson's of 77 but these 76 Samsons are a few ticks slower and so in the pocket. NYE 76 has one of the coolest Samsons ever, and this one is one of the best ever....
Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain

China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider
April 19, 1984
Philadelphia Civic Center

DAVE'S 35! What an AMAZING China>Rider! I just got my Medical Marijuana card yesterday and went to the dispensary just now, took my first hit of weed in over 10 years and listened to this China>Rider and o my fucking God what a transition into Rider and THE FUCKING RIDER my God Jerry is laying down some of the most intricate leads ...Amazing!
